Hello. This is what I've done, it runs fine except the only problem is that it complains about not being able to write to the ">" destination (new_logfile.txt).

use Win32::Process;

$program = "c:\\perl\\scripts\\tail.exe";
$arg0 = " > c:\\perl\scripts\\logfile.txt > c:\\perl\\scripts\\new_log
+file.txt";

Win32::Process::Create($ProcessObj, "$program", "$arg0", 0, NORMAL_PRI
+ORITY_CLASS, ".")|| die ErrorReport();

until ($endit < time) {
    next;
}

$pid = $ProcessObj->GetProcessID();
Win32::Process::KillProcess($pid, $exitcode);
