You would only use Scripting.FileSystemObject if you are a strong
masochist.

open my $OUT, '> ', "test2.txt" or die "Failed to open: $^E\n"; print
$OUT "Hello\n";

just like in normal Perl.

And most likely the problem is permissions. The account undex which the
ASP page runs doesn't have enough permissions to create the file in the
current directory.

ForWriting is not defined. You should check the values returned
CreateObject and CreateTextFile.

Cheers,
Ken.
