I am not creating the process using Win32::Process::Create(). Then you will need to obtain a handle to the process using: `my $proc = Win32::Process::Open( $pid, $iflags ); Creates a handle Perl can use to an existing process as identified by +$pid.` [download] And then call the Wait method on that handle: `$proc->Wait( <milliseconds\|INFINITE> );` [download] With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday' Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error. "Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice. The start of some sanity?	[reply] [d/l] [select]
