Hi Roderich Thanks for the suggestion. I read up on IPC::Run3, and I don't think it meets my needs. I need to control a CLI program that requires a long dialog of inputs and outputs; IPC::Run3 doesn't seem to support this.
Thanks, again! tl -----Original Message----- From: Schupp Roderich (extern) Com MD PD SWP 2 CM MCH [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 04, 2005 8:16 AM To: Andy; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [email protected] Subject: RE: Need to 'bring along' perl.exe, I guess . . . . > can you achieve what you want using Threads or do you have a > specific need to create a Win32 process? The call to Win32::Process::Create is internal to IPC::Run http://search.cpan.org/~rsod/IPC-Run/, but maybe Terry's program only needs the simplified features implemented by IPC::Run3 http://search.cpan.org/~rbs/IPC-Run3/ which doesn't use Win32::Process? Cheers, Roderich
