in thread Problem with ActivePerl 5.6.1 and @ARGV

Please to show us what the file association says for a PL file. Mine shows
"E:\Perl\bin\perl.exe" "%1" %*
Also have you rebooted? I know it _shouldnt_ be required. But this is windows after all....

    Monks, enlightenment just dawned -- and what a relief it is with 5 mins to go before the weekend! The file assocation for .pl in fact said:

    "C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe" "%1"

    so I just added the %* at the end as per the suggestions and now all my scripts work fine again! Many thanks to all who took the time to answer; ++votes from me to y'all.

    Cheers, mooseboy
