I'd be glad to elaborate (and I'd be glad to keep it a .pl file, unfortunately I'll only be able to do the former).

This summer I'm working at NASA Langley developing some applications. I need the perl2exe (or its ActiveSTate counterpart, which is causing its own headaches as we speak) because the programs I'v written are to be run on another computer to get data from pilots after they run certain conditions in a flight simulator. A GUI was desired, and when I told my employer that Perl and TK would need to be installed on the computer it would be run on (and that perl was an interpreter), he asked if I could make it an exe.

I'm pretty sure I downloaded the latest version, but I'll try again (but right now, after downloading, unistalling, and redownloading, WIndows INstaller is spewing out error messges that won't let me install at all!).

Update:

Well, PerlDevKit pulls through! Thanks for the suggestions...
