Why are you try to execute your perl script from Frontpage? I think what you are trying to do is develop CGI scripts in Perl. You have Apache installed, I assume, on your local system. So all you should have to do is point your browser to the webpage (http://localhost/whatever.html) that contains the form that will be passed to your webserver. Your webserver will then execute your script.

Well, I'm developing webpages in Frontpage. Some of them use forms. I process the forms in Perl. I can preview all of my pages and test them while in Frontpage. Except the ones with forms. It would be really convenient to preview them in Frontpage too without having to fire up my browser and find a page buried 6 directories deep under localhost.
