I have a program that request data from remote server by a COM, I use Win32::OLE to call method in COM, 
eval{
$obj=Win32::OLE->GetActiveObject("Expert.CoExec");
 
};
if ($@||Win32::OLE->LastError()) {
  die "Can not start Expert";
     }

@temp_array1=$obj->RemoteCallFunc("get_tradedetaile_4P_1_1",Variant(VT
+_DATE,$Task_ref->{Date}));

but because calling cross internet, remote server may not response during requesting the mass data. I think what is a better way to do this is a timeout method, but can not find kind of timeout way in win32::ole doc, so any one know how to deal with this problem?
