It is very easy to save the output from command prompt to a text file, you just have to follow few steps:
Assuming you are using Win XP, Start > RUN type in CMD and hit Enter. A "dos"
box will open. type in your ping command and see the results, when finished.
To save the output of the result right click>select all>ctl+c. Open notepad ctl+v. or you can save it to any text editor.

box will open. type in your ping command and see the results, when finished,
either close the box as you would any normal window, or just type exit to
close it
Alternatively, Start > Programs > Accessories > Comamnd Prompt also opens a
"dos" box.
To save the output of the command click right >select all>ctl+c. Open notepad ctl+v. or you can save it to any text editor which you want.

There are different methods for saving the command prompt output. You can simply click right and select all the content of the output, then press ctrl+c to select and ctrl+v to paste or you can also you use mouse for doing that. There is another method for doing this which are as follows:
traceroute 127.0.0.1 > traceresult.txt
then open the file pingresult.txt and so on.
Or take a screen shot.
Or use Mark (i.e. copy)/paste into another application.

You can do it in many way. One of the way are as follows:
By adding a command to the ping request to save the output as a text file.

Click Start, Programs, DOS Prompt or click Start, Run. In the Run
box, type "CMD" without the quotes and press enter.

At the prompt, type:

ping 192.168.0.1 >c:\ping.txt

That will save the ping data to a text file in the root directory of drive C

Now double-click c:\ping.txt and you will see something similar to this:
