in reply to Desperately needing help with Storable

You have installed it by simply copying over the .pm file into your perl libraries directory. Thats not how it works. You need a C compiler, and a make tool (most likely nmake on Win32). If you're a beginner, it's probably a lot easier for you to type:
C:\> ppm ppm> install Storable ... ppm> quit
And it will install a pre-compiled binary for you. Matt.

    Thanks. I don't have a compiler or a make tool. I have not installed many modules - one or two - and have not had this problem before. I'll start looking.

      If you are using ActiveState Perl, use their PPM installer. ActiveState has precompiled binaries for most the common ones, hence you will not need a compiler to install.
