So, what part of your code issues that problem? The big picture of your code is of no help. We need to know the lines of code that are producing the problem. From the rough interpretation of your error description, it seems that Win32 does not export a symbol `$VERSION` but your code tries to import it. Importing `$VERSION` from another module is a highly unusual practice, so most likely, there is something really wrong in your code.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

$Win32::VERSION--version check failed at line 435 finds lots of hits. Most of them indicate that there is a missing `use Win32;` line: http://sourceforge.net/p/open-perl-ide/discussion/73753/thread/9d35f4f4/ http://bytes.com/topic/perl/answers/891119-perl-script-compiling Barring further information from you, I guess that the main problem is that you upgraded your version of Perl but whatever IDE you might be running still uses an old/incompatible version of `perl5db.pl` to run your Perl programs. Maybe adding `use Win32;` to `perl5db.pl` might fix that.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
