Hi Herman,
I have tried to do what you have tried, both at a standard CMD prompt and at
an elevated CMD prompt. I got the same result as you both times. However, the
command worked when you used the /FO TABLE format instead of the /FO CSV
format. This is either a bug in Vista, or they have got the command help file
wrong.
