Thanks I tried that link before and followed the instructions. The problems start at #include <perl.h>, apparently Borland dosent like that header file. This was about a week ago so I cant rember the exact errors and warnings. What I do know is that I added the libs and header files I was supposed to. Thats why I asked specifically about windows, the example seems to be *nix biased. I wanted someone who actually did it before. Preferably with a non M$ compiler. Thanks again.
