That's great.

You Guys are Great!!
I am running on win32 version. How do I install the module? I've never done that before.

Thanks in advance.

    Are you running cygwin or Activestate? With Activestate you can use the 'ppm' tool to install modules. With Cygwin I think you would want to download the tar ball and run the make; make install; but I haven't worked much with Cygwin's perl.

    Ira,

    if the modules isn't in activestate's archive, you'll need to find a copy of nmake.exe from microsoft to be able to create the makefile. do a web search and you should be able to come up with a copy. you'll also need to come up with a gcc-compatible compiler ... cygwin works and you can also download a kit that includes a compiler from borland. it's been a while since i worked through this, but you shouldn't have much trouble.
