If called from another process, "exit" should be fine. But if you call a
batch script with an "exit" in it from the command line (which you might
do while testing), it will exit the command line instead of simply
exiting the script. I didn't know about the /B switch that another
poster mentioned however, so that should accomplish what you want
instead of using my "trick".

Then there is a problem with the way you are calling your Perl script.
Be sure to store %errorlevel% immediately after you execute it, or it
might get overwritten by the next command.
