    So what was the error message? Did you figure out how to fix the problem?

      The error message was: 
      Unable to open G:/Directory_path/Flat_file_test_C_out.txt: No such fil

        That's the error I get when I do:
        perl -e "open(FILE, '>nonexistant/test') or die($!);"
        Since you're creating the file, it means the path ("nonexistant/" in my case, "G:/Directory_path/" in yours) doesn't exist.

        Check for typos. Copy and paste the path from somewhere (the address bar of Windows Explorer, for example) to make sure there are no typos.

        Are you running your script as a service? G: is not likely to exist for a service.

        See what happens if you use c:/out.txt instead.
