I dont think, we can record the command window as this is a DOS window.
You can work on this using "wscript.shell"

Code:
set oCmd=createobject("WSCript.Shell")

oCmd.run "cmd /K Date"

There can be some other ways as well to handle this , depends on the requirement.

Code:
Set a = CreateObject("WScript.shell")

a.Run "cmd"
