in reply to Perl migration script

There's some syntactic confusion in your request. You're either asking for a program that will translate a batch file (presumably from DOS/Windows) into a Perl script, or you're asking how to re-write the batch files into Perl. The former seems like a pretty large assignment, so the latter seems like a more normal request.

We can certainly assist you when you get stuck, but that means you have to get started on your task, get stuck, and then come back and post again. Do you have any of the excellent Perl books available from O'Reilly? What level programmer are you? Do you think you'd be able to write this yourself, or will you need to hire someone? (If that's the case, this is not the right site to advertise.)

ps You can drop the l33t speak -- we speak English here.

    Well, I am sorry for any confusions. I want to call couple of batch files in my Perl script. How do I do that on Windows??

      Hi himank,

      I want to call couple of batch files in my Perl script

      You can do that with system(): 
      system "my_first.bat";
system "my_second.bat";

      [download]
      See perldoc -f system .

      Cheers,

      Rob
