Good Day Jan,

I am running into an issue with OUTLOOK and the OFFLB.EXE and I am unsure of the cause, but I was executing PERL scripts using WIN32::OLE to execute Excel. Do you have any recommendations for the best practice to have the PERL script cleanly close/exit WIN32::OLE and EXCEL? Do you know and/or have seen issues with PERL and WIN32::OLE causing issues to have OFFLB.EXE kick in?

Thanks,
gary
