They sorta have, but since the OS doesn't support it, it's a kludge and not reliable in many instances. Not that hard to start a process and redirect output to a file and read the file after the timeout expires or the task completes. Once you've done it, save the code and you don't have to ever re-do it again. _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list Perl-Win32-Users@listserv.ActiveState.com To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
