Marcus,
The %comspec% environment variable holds the path and .exe for the
command prompt under all windows systems.
Thanks,
Grant Tester

Thanks. That works :-)
I would have to test for NT, because the equivalent to command.com on
NT is cmd.exe.
Are there any other names for the command line interpreter on Windows
ME and W2K?
Strangely enough, the following now worked. I'll have to do some more
testing to see whether it's consistent. Could you test it on Win 98,
please?
system (1, 'start http://www.perl.com');
Thanks,
Marcus Friedlaender
