title: Using window commands to delete the first two lines of a text file
body: <p>Can anyone provide a windows command or batch script that will remove the top two rows from a text file?</p>
  
  <p>I'd like to remove the first two lines of a text file using findstr.  I can't use the "more +2 file.txt > newfile.txt" trick described <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/600653/delete-first-line">here</a> because i'm calling this via xp_cmdshell and that doesn't seem to work (process often hangs and creates a permanently locked file I can't delete).  </p>
  
  <p>I've heard that findstr can use regular expressions to find something like this, and i've seen some attempts using a bat file.  I'm open to either one of these possibilities but haven't found a working solution yet.   </p>
