Perl script Automation

[Nova980]

How can I start two jobs simultaneously using a batch file? For example...

Batch file includes:

D:
perl script.pl
perl script2.pl

How can I start these two scripts at the same time?

Thank you.

Hi

perl script.pl [red]&[/red]
perl script2.pl

While you specified no operating system, I suppose it is Unix or Unix-like with [tt]sh[/tt] compatible shell.

Actually it's windows. This only starts the first script

 

[travs69]

use the "start" command to start them in their own space.

That's ok, I just used a vb script.

dim oShell
Set oShell=WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

oShell.Run "us.bat",1,false
wscript.sleep 20000
oShell.Run "schedulerrun.bat",1,false

It starts up my job a few minutes prior to my first job.

But thank you for your response.
