I tried a prg with Schedule::Cron,
it adds a row to the excel sheet, for every 1 min, now i want to stop the process from further running,
I tried $cron->clean_timetable() but still the process is running
Can u tell me the directory in which this scheduler is running
and also how to get pid for this process
The code goes like this 
use Schedule::Cron;
use Data::Dumper;

sub dispatcher 
{
  my @details;
  push(@details,"\nCode \t Name ");
  open SITE_DETAILS, ">>/home/www/cgi-bin/x/d.xls")    
  or die "Can't open property_details file: $!\n";
  print SITE_DETAILS @details;
}
##create an empty file crontests.cron
my $cron = new Schedule::Cron(\&dispatcher);
$cron->load_crontab("/home/www/cgi-bin/x/crontests.cron");

$cron->add_entry("06  01 * * *",\&dispatcher);
$cron->run(detach=>1);
#$cron->clean_timetable();
