Oracle under Perl (NT)

Im accessing Personal Oracle (soon to be Oracle Server on NT) with Perl 5.001. That is, Im accessing SQL*LOADER using the Perl SYSTEM command; its working fine, probably because SQL*LOADER is character based.
If I execute the GUI SQL*PLUS utility from the command line (which I run with an input file having the Oracle EXIT command as the last statement), it executes correctly, updating a table and exiting out of the GUI front-end. However, if I execute the same file from within Perl, SQL*PLUS runs but then hangs, and doesnt exit back to Perl. Any ideas on how to make SQL*PLUS exit, returning control to Perl? Thanks, Mark
