R help - Sep 2009 - executing rscript from VB

Hi,
I am looking to execute an R script from VB as  below.
The script runs fine but the redirection doesnt seem to happen. The
redirection operator and the out file seem to be treated as arguments
to the R script. Is there a way to get the > operator working

thanks, R

System.Diagnostics.Process proc = new System.Diagnostics.Process();
proc.StartInfo.FileName = "E:/R/bin/Rscript.exe";
proc.StartInfo.Arguments = "E:/R/bin/test.r > test.out";
proc.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = true;
proc.Start();

That's a VB question.  You should ask Microsoft.
