My ignorance seems to be hindering me. I looked over the Win32::OLE->LastError and implimented the following: 
#!/usr/ym/util/perl
use Win32::OLE; 

#Perl "C:/documents and settings/aaron.verellen/desktop/trial2.pl"

#Win32::OLE->Initialize(COINIT_OLEINITIALIZE);
Win32::OLE->Option(Warn => 2);

#use existing instance if mathcad is already running
eval {$MC = Win32::OLE->GetActiveObject('Mathcad.Application')};
die "Mathcad not installed" if $@;
unless (defined $MC)
{
    $MC = Win32::OLE->new('Mathcad.Application', sub{$_[0]->Quit;})
    or die "Unable to start Mathcad";
}

#Open specific worksheet
my $filePath = 'C:\Documents and Settings\aaron.verellen\Desktop\testM
+12.xmcd';
my $WS = $MC->Worksheets;
my $S = $WS->Open($filePath);


#Set values on the worksheet
$S->setValue('x',50);
$S->setValue('y',60);
$S->setValue('z',70);
    
$S->Recalculate;

my $test = $S->getValue('x');
my $err = Win32::OLE::LastError();
print "*$err\n";
print "test = $test\n";

my $answer1 = $S->getValue('output1');
my $answer2 = $S->getValue('output2');

print "($answer1,$answer2)\n";

When I run the above script I get:

C:\>Perl "C:/documents and settings/aaron.verellen/desktop/trial2.pl"
Win32::OLE(0.1709) error 0xc00000fd
in METHOD/PROPERTYGET "getValue" at C:/documents and settings/aaron.verellen /desktop/trial2.pl line 31
*Win32::OLE(0.1709) error 0xc00000fd
in METHOD/PROPERTYGET "getValue"
test =

The information gleamed off the lasterror technique appears to be the same as the error message recieved before. My first though is I didn't impliment it correctly. Would you please take the time and correct my ignorance Anonymous Monk so that whatever clues you seek I can give you?

Thank you so much for everything you have done thus far,
Aaron
