I want to execute "export CCASE_NO_FILE_HEADER=yes" command in Perl
script.
If I run this command on bash prompt then it is executing properly but
if I try to execute this command through perl script then it is not
executing at all

How should I achieve this . is there any another way.

Please help.

Regards,
Irfan

Agreed that the parent process in which perl was invoked will not be
changed
by the perl script.

What is the overall objective?

Try to do everything you need to do inside the perl script, or
everything
you need to do outside the perl script.
