in reply to installing cpan

Open a command prompt and type:

cpan Text::CSV

Note this is case sensitive. The cpan documentation has a lot of useful information regarding usage.

Update: Also, a more accurate post title would be something like 'Installing Text::CSV using cpan'. See How do I compose an effective node title?.

    hey it is failing , saying no success downloading and the file path , giving up on it.

      Perhaps you're behind a proxy and need to provide your credentials. Without knowing exactly what's going on people can only make suggestions which may or may not work. How do I post a question effectively? has a lot to say on this topic. I suggest you post the output of this command, using the formatting described in the previous link.

        the exact message is

        Warning : no success downloading 'C:\Perl\cpan\sources\authors\01mailrc.txt.gz.tmp3332'.Giving up on it
