Hi Doug, For this type of thing I always start with "Child Processes 3" in the Cookbook as a template (http://poe.perl.org/?POE_Cookbook/Child_Processes_3). All you need to do really is modify do_stuff() to perform the essential logic of your existing script, handle the output appropriately, etc. Pretty straightforward as long as your requirments aren't too complex. Since the example is a complete script you can also observe how the parts interact before diving in. Zach
