Write Notepad In Background

[AcidCorps]

Is there a way to open notepad minimized and send text to it while it remains minimized so that the user can use other programs and not see the script while it is running (wither it's on the task bar or not doesn't bother me)?

Thank you

When creating text files, I often like to use code such as this:

RunWait('"' & @ComSpec & '" /c echo This is some text > C:\textfile.txt', '', @SW_HIDE) ;Using one ">" will overwrite or create a new file, while ">>" will append to a file.

That way, it's in the background and it's also quicker than using Notepad. Not sure it's what you were looking for, but I thought I'd throw that out there as an option. *shrug*
