in reply to Using the modules I want to use.

I've found it helpful that the 'use' command accepts a version number. If the module in my cgi-bin is newer than the one in the system's perl library directory, something like this might help you to know. This is good if you might not want your cgi-bin path to be FIRST in the @INC, but just *in* the @INC :
use DBI 1.20;

    Thanks, When I use this use GD 1.27; I get Internal Server Error. [Sat Nov  2 13:22:10 2002] [error] [client 12.234.205.16] Premature end of script headers: /u/web/dom/cgi-local/whichversion.cgi
      I'd guess that whicversion.cgi is sending output without an http header. If that's right then you need either
      use CGI qw/:standard/; print header;
      or just
      print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
      before any print commands in your script, which will allow the output from the script to appear in the browser window.
