ipcBeginProcess...

 Hi Andrew,

I have written a code to open an excel thruogh perl.I am using cid=ipcBeginProcess("perl filename.pl").

The perl file is as below -

---------------------------------------

 #!/usr/local/bin/perl  -w

use Spreadsheet::WriteExcel
my $workbook=Spreadsheet::WriteExcel->new('perl.xls');
$worksheet=$workbook->add_worksheet('sheet2');

my$worksheet->write(0,0, "Helllo" )

--------------------------------------

I am getting " Badly placed ()'s " as an error message, when I execute it [cid=ipcBeginProcess("perl filename.pl")] in terminal. I want to combine it with a skill code.Can you please help?

Thanks...

    If your perl script only works on a particular machine, you can use the second argument of ipcBeginProcess to launch the process on a specified host (assuming you can rsh or ssh onto it without a password - normally it's rsh, but you can use ssh (in IC61X releases, by creating a copy of <ICinstDIr>/share/cdssetup/cdsRemsh/cdsRemote.scr in a directory called cdsRemsh which is somewhere in your setup.loc dir, with the line to decide between rsh and ssh changed).

    But I'm not sure if this is what you're asking - your question is rather confusing.

    Andrew.
