in thread convert text to word

When I run the perl code below, there is an error said that
Can't locate loadable object for module Win32::OLE in @INC (@INC conta +ins: /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8. +0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/per +l5/site_perl/5.8.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_per +l/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0 /usr +/lib/perl5/vendor_perl .) at word2text.pl line 2
How can I solve that problem...if anybody know please answer......
use Win32::OLE; # check if Word exists and is running my $word = Win32::OLE->GetActiveObject('Word.Application'); die "Word not Installed" if $@; # start Word program instance if required or die if unable to unless (defined $word) { $word = Win32::OLE->new('Word.Application', sub { $_[0]->Quit; } ) + or die 'Cannot start Word'; } # hide/show the document $word->{Visible} = 0; # Create new document my $d = $word->Documents->Add; # define selection my $s = $word->Selection; #set lines to be written to document my @lines = ( "This is a test line\n", "This is second test Line\n", "This is the third line\n", ); # add the lines of text $s->TypeText($_) for @lines; # save our object $word->WordBasic->FileSaveAs("c:\\test.doc"); # undef our object out of existance undef $word;

    Um... Sorry, but how do you expect to run Win32::OLE on /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi?

    Does MS Word run on that platform?

    ps. Your more likely to get responses of you take the time to read the site FAQ and learn how to format your posts so they are readable.
