I'd try :
@MakeCmd = ("nmake", "-f", "Nmakefile.mak");
$rc = system(join " ",@MakeCmd);

Subject: system() call fails


Hi Gurus!

I'm running Perl 5.004_04 on Win2k.

The system() command in the following script is 
failing with a: "No such file or directory" 
error.

@MakeCmd = ("nmake", "-f", "Nmakefile.mak");
$rc = system(@MakeCmd);
print "rc = $rc -> $!\n";

I can change it from an array to a scalar and it 
will work but I'm having the same problems with 
other scripts that I cannot change.

Any ideas why this is happening?

Thanks!

Meriwether
