Hi, My perl program calls a batch file on a remote machine. Now my question is how to return a value from that batch script and how to grab it in the perl file? ***INFOSYS******** End of Disclaimer ********INFOSYS*** In shell use the $? variable. This holds the return code of that last command or script. At the end of your script have something like... echo $? > /tmp/rc.out; 0=true 1=false In shell Then in your Perl program Check to see if the file is > 0 If it is open the file and do your magic. _________________________________________________ This message is for the designated recipient only and may contain privileged, proprietary, or otherwise private information.
