Now that part is bug in the module, its using string form of system, which is subject to shell interpolation, can be fixed like `## my $commandstring = $self->executable."$instring"."$param_stri +ng"; ## $commandstring .= ' 1>/dev/null' if $quiet; ## $self->debug( "clustal command = $commandstring"); ## ## my $status = system($commandstring); my @command = ( $self->executable, $instring, $param_string +); $self->debug( "clustal command = @command "); my $status = system(@command);` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

I Just made it work! Steps to make it work: 1)copy the `clustalw2.exe` 2)paste it on your e.g. Desktop 3)Rename it to `clustalw.exe` 4)Give the `$ENV{CLUSTALDIR}`the new path to `clustalw.exe` and it works! (at first tried to rename the basic clustalw2.exe of 'C:\Program Files (x86)\ClustalW2' but didn't work) Thanks everybody for your help and your time! Have a nice day!	[reply] [d/l] [select]
