Thanks for your time Rob. I did update the ExtUtils::MakeMaker, and I still have this problem. I do notice one strange thing though, according to this link http://search.cpan.org/dist/Lab-VISA/lib/Lab/VISA/Installation.pod they ask me to correct the EXTRALIBS and LDLOADLIBS by adding the "C:\path\to\visa32.lib" to each of of these lines. But I dont see EXTRALIBS and LDLOADLIBS in my Makefile. What am I doing wrong?
