If so, then the following (built-in*) commands will get you close: dnscmd Your.DNS.Server /zoneprint yourzone.com. | findstr /v "[Aging" | findstr /r /v "^;" You can do better with add-on commands (Perl, grep etc) or if you know all the details of FindStr which I almost never use except when offering commands to those who may be dependent on the default tools. -- Herb Martin, MCSE, MVP http://www.LearnQuick.Com (phone on web site)
