DCLSYM can handle DCL symbols, but the entire question of status codes is an area that should be documented better. It is also clouded by the use of POSIX error codes by perl, I believe. > Run/detached of other programs. Haven't tried this from perl > Globbing files remote with username and password. Not sure of your requirements here. Would you use DECnet as the transport, or TCPIP? If the latter, perhaps NET::FTP would be the logical starting place. That works for me (using Multinet ) but I have to say that error handling and status codes are, again, a big deal. > > If there are solutions, i like to know how to find them. > It is hard to find the right keywords to google! > > Kind regards, > > Kees van der Pot > > Hosting Services VMS NL > EDS International BV Let me know if you need more information on any of these general suggestions.
