You bring up the perl documentation with the perldoc command. If you have perl installed on your system, open a command window and type perldoc perl for a directory of what's available. For starters, you can:

• look up help for perl functions with perldoc -f <function>.
• search for FAQ answers with perldoc -q <search-text>.
• look up module documentation with perldoc <module-name>.

If you are using ActivePerl, there should be an entry in your start menu that will start your browser on their html-ized documentation. I'm not sure what other Windows perl distributors provide for documentation.
