"cat >" command is not working in windows 2008

[sudhap85]

I am trying the following command on DOS command prompt and it does not work.
There is a process which writes to STDOUT and the following command captures
it[from STDIN] and writes to a file.Please help in this regard.
cat > $root/qfile ‘> $root/script” but /tmp qfile itself is not created.

cygiwn version - 1.5.25-15
Active State Perl- 5.8

Thanks in advance.
