Display Results without writing to file

[SWarrior]

I need to be able to display the results of my script without writing them to a file. I'm using an array to store my results, but the content is WAY to large for a single message box, and I need to be able to see all of the content at once.I can accomplish this by writing to a text file and then using notepad to open it, but then I have a residual file on the hard drive. Is there a way to post the content INTO a notepad without actually having a file for notepad to open ?? Basically, have my script read from the array and then write directly to notepad? When I close notepad, Nothing is saved unless I specifically say so.

This method uses IE instead of notepad, but lets you structure your spript's output just like any web page, you can use colour and different sizes.

'Open IE and set at required size
Set objExplorer = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
objExplorer.Navigate "about:blank"  
objExplorer.ToolBar = 0
objExplorer.StatusBar = 0
objExplorer.Width = 800
objExplorer.Height = 570
objExplorer.Left = 0
objExplorer.Top = 0
objExplorer.Visible = 1  

'Create a document to accept the output.
Set objDocument = objExplorer.Document    
objDocument.Open 


'use objDocument.Writeln to add text to the document
'don't forget to use html tags to arrange the data.
objDocument.Writeln "Hello my friends<br>"
objDocument.Writeln "Hello my friends"
objDocument.Writeln "Hello my friends<br>"
objDocument.Writeln "Hello my friends<br>"


'finally close the document. IE will stay open until closed.
objDocument.Close

Hope it helps
