DuplicateHandle works for me as well if compiled with gcc. Only when it is compiled with "cl" (Microsoft's C compiler) do I have this problem. As Gerrit Haase mentioned, the problem is possibly a quirk with cl. Again, I only have the DuplicateHandle if the showProb.pl script is called from showProb.sh. Otherwise, DuplicateHandle works when compiled with cl. Thanks again for your assistance. I appreciate it.
