Integrate ack to VIM74 on window7 64bit

I'm using ack.vim on windows 7 64bit with VIM74(32bit), but i can't get my search results in quickfix windows

This is how my SHELL window display below:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c (ack.pl -H --nocolor --nogroup --column Flash_Locked ^>C:\Users\edward\AppData\Local\Temp\VIeC84A.tmp 2^>^&1)

Anyone can help me out. Thanks.

This is probably because it's trying to directly invoke ack.pl, which only works when you tell Windows to associate the .pl file extension with the Perl interpreter.

It's more robust to explicitly specify the Perl interpreter, though: The call should look like: ... cmd.exe /c (perl ack.pl ... (assuming perl is available through PATH).
