A sample code snippet would help.

Snipping some code from one of my scripts (this seems to work for me) :

my $winzip = 'D:/Util/WinZip/wzzip.exe';
my @zip_options = qw(-a -r -p -whs); # add, recurse, sub paths, +hidden/system
my $zipfile = 'somename.zip';

# send a newline to Winzip if not registered version

open OUT, "| $winzip @zip_options $zipfile '*.*' >E:/tmp/wzzip.log" or
  die "wzzip pipe: $!";
print OUT "\n";
close OUT;

I'm running it under tcsh which is probably why I quoted '*.*'.
