If that one command is not setable from a command line it will become seriously more complicated and way out of my league. But if that command can be passed to the software with a commandline flag just put the $flag into the variable. my $cmd = '/path/to/cmd -o'; Where `-o' is a command line switch that runs the needed command. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
