hiding the command prompt in perl

[sr71000]

I'm making a proggy for fad and I need to know how to hide the command prompt while the program runs. I've heard some stuff about wperl and a few different codes i've tried. All the different code i've tried just closed my proggy and stopped it from running. It has to be something that does not require the user to do much to run the program, because it's targeted to some of the newer users for fad. It is to fix the wireless network installations for fad. It's possible the new update could fix it and this would be all wasted but i still wanna try and do it! Is there a way that I can hide the program without having to have the end user do anything major other than install perl Thanks!!

ok...well. I found out how to use wperl.exe and it's working fine, but I do have a question for everyone. How can I edit the registry through a perl script and also, where in the registry is the setting for associating an extension with a program? I would like to associate .wp with C:\Perl\wperl.exe that way the window stays hidden. I am also having a problem with starting fad. I'm using the system call to start think.lgo and for a half a second when the system call runs and the perl script forks, the new script is run by perl.exe instead of wperl.exe and is not hidden. Is there a different system call to be run by wperl.exe (like wsystem or something wierd like that) Thanks!!
