I need to capture the exit status of my perl script. I used exit(0) for success and exit(1) for failure. However, exit(1) aborts everything and I'm not able to check the status.

By the way, did I mention that I'm on OpenVMS!?!?!?

Thanks in advance!

Nevermind...I found the problem. It's actually controlled OUTSIDE the perl script (i.e., it's a VMS thing). Please disregard this posting.
