Redirection output
Hi there

I have a script that runs but it outputs everything onto the screen instead of a file.

I've tried using the > outputfile.txt however all it does is dump the output to the screen and creates an outputfile.txt but doesn't put anything in that file.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks in advance!
