Do appreciate the ellaborate response. As suggested, I started the Perl Package Manager and it on its own downloaded Finance::Quote. Now...I have placed stockpick.pl in 'C:\Perl\eg'. When I execute the command "perl stockpick.pl nsdq goog", the following error is generated:
C:\Perl\eg>perl stocktick.pl nsdq goog Can't locate HTML/TableExtract.pm in @INC (@INC contains: C:/Perl/site +/lib C:/Pe rl/lib .) at C:/Perl/site/lib/Finance/Quote.pm line 38. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/Perl/site/lib/Finance/Quote.pm + line 38. Compilation failed in require at stocktick.pl line 3. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at stocktick.pl line 3.
So I will attempt the method suggested by you. Where should the command "ppm repo add C:\LocalRepo MyRepo" be executed. When I execute it in C:\>, the following error is generated:
C:\>ppm repo add C:\LocalRepo MyRepo ppm repo failed: The repository URL must be absolute or a local direct +ory
Please advise. Await your response. Best, wirefree
