The problem here is the output.txt file is not getting created in time.This file contains the output of sql query.
so as it is not finding the file in time it is throwing error.
what have to be done here is to wait until the execution of query is completed and file is created.
I manually created output.txt file in the directory and tested it.It is working fine.
All the other part is working fine.
Echo off,heading off commands etc are used to filter the output so that it does not contain column names etc of the table.

MSSQL_RESULT(3) 														   MSSQL_RESULT(3)

mssql_result - Get result data

SYNOPSIS
string mssql_result (resource $result, int $row, mixed $field) DESCRIPTION
mssql_result(3) returns the contents of one cell from a MS SQL result set. PARAMETERS
o $result - The result resource that is being evaluated. This result comes from a call to mssql_query(3). o $row - The row number. o $field - Can be the field's offset, the field's name or the field's table dot field's name (tablename.fieldname). If the column name has been aliased ('select foo as bar from...'), it uses the alias instead of the column name. Note Specifying a numeric offset for the $field argument is much quicker than specifying a fieldname or tablename.fieldname argu- ment. RETURN VALUES
Returns the contents of the specified cell. EXAMPLES
Example #1 mssql_result(3) example <?php // Send a select query to MSSQL $query = mssql_query('SELECT [username] FROM [php].[dbo].[userlist]'); // Check if there were any records if (!mssql_num_rows($query)) { echo 'No records found'; } else { for ($i = 0; $i < mssql_num_rows($query); ++$i) { echo mssql_result($query, $i, 'username'), PHP_EOL; } } // Free the query result mssql_free_result($query); ?> The above example will output something similar to: Kalle Felipe Emil Ross Example #2 Faster alternative to above example <?php // Send a select query to MSSQL $query = mssql_query('SELECT [username] FROM [php].[dbo].[userlist]'); // Check if there were any records if (!mssql_num_rows($query)) { echo 'No records found'; } else { while ($row = mssql_fetch_array($query)) { echo $row['username'], PHP_EOL; } } // Free the query result mssql_free_result($query); ?> NOTES
Note When working on large result sets, you should consider using one of the functions that fetch an entire row (specified below). As these functions return the contents of multiple cells in one function call, they're MUCH quicker than mssql_result(3). SEE ALSO
Recommended high-performance alternatives: mssql_fetch_row(3), mssql_fetch_array(3), mssql_fetch_assoc(3), mssql_fetch_object(3). PHP Documentation Group MSSQL_RESULT(3)
