in thread Win32::Process - need help from an expert!

The second argument ( $^X ) is the fully qualified path to perl.exe. I'll get rid of that for now and use what I know is the fully qualified path and see if it helps. I'll also use the Wain(INFINATE) that you mentioned to see if that helps as well. Thanks for the quick reply! Andy

    Sorry, you are correct, $^X should have worked (I missed the fact that you were running another perl script).
    Is the second script actually running?
      I don't believe the script I am trying to execute it running. I'm simplifying things now by using the helloworld.bat file which is:
      echo helloworld > c:\helloworld.txt
      To see if things are running. Also, I am using forward slashes "/" like I do for Linux / Unix on the path instead of using back slashes "\" like windows uses. I've switched these to see if it works like that.
        There's no echo program, so that's a very bad test.
