Yea Shawn - ActivePerl sets the windows file association to perl for ..pl files.
I don't know the "at" problem... I stick to the perl script.pl format because I remember having problems passing arguments to the script w/the short form...never got around to finding out why.

"perl script.pl" works also, but isn't necessary. On a Windows NT machine I have found that, when using the 'at' command to schedule a script, I can't use "perl script.pl" or it fails -- "script.pl" works, though.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Perl!
