Assuming Analog can find it.

These are hardcoded into the anlgform.pl, and if you copy anlfgorm.pl to
a machine that has never seen analog.exe, it'll generate the same
output.

anlgform.pl doesn't know or care about your logfile - it's only job
is to call analog.exe and pass it the parameters you specify. The
WARNINGS FL entry is one of the parameters it passes to analog.exe,
telling analog.exe to report any files it can't find, or logfiles it
doesn't like. But when you specify qv=1, it doesn't actually call
analog.exe

Because "anlgform.pl qv=1" doesn't do anything, except report the
settings it would use if it were doing something.

The progress bar in IE is meaningless. Have you verified that .pl
scripts work on your server? (Sorry, but they never seem to work at
first for me). If you add
<input type=hidden name="qv" value=1>
to your form, then the perlscript should run and just return the config
lines you saw when you ran it at the DOS prompt, plus any other values
set in the form. If it doesn't run, then there's a problem with your web
server running perl scripts.
Has anyone compiled anlgform.exe for version 4.03?
