How so?

You received instructions how to remove/uninstall existing Wx module

You received instructions how to install the latest Wx version

What went wrong?

    AM: thank you for your investment of time and energy.

    Now, are you referring to your response in: www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=1030954 ?
    If so, then some instructions there are unclear:

    Like I said, I am reluctant to install another Perl installation (citrus); considering that, are all statements in your post, commands that I should enter at the command line?

    pm-uninstall -f -v Wx Alien::wxWidgets
    is that a command I should enter?

    For 2.9.4 builds add : http://www.wxperl.co.uk/repo29
    What do you mean by "add"? where do I have to add it?

    ppm remove Wx Alien-wxWidgets 
    ppm install http://www.wxperl.co.uk/repo29/Wx.ppd
    
    are these commands that I should use with the StrawberryPerl PPM utility, or did you assume I was running ActivePerl?

      are all statements in your post, commands that I should enter at the command line?

      I forget, I think they're links you can click and read and decide what you want to do, or try them out

      What do you mean by "add"? where do I have to add it?

      I don't know, sorry, it would certainly be in the documentation -- although you don't have to, given that you can install by giving a full url

      are these commands that I should use with the StrawberryPerl PPM utility, or did you assume I was running ActivePerl?

      I don't know; I gave you some choices, I know you've used ppm before, and at some point you have to try and figure it out

      If so, then some instructions there are unclear

      Yup, I see that now, links as instrunctions doesn't seem to work :/
