I am trying to install Win32::Clipboard ver 53 on winxp. I have activeperl 5.8.8 820. I am using nmake since this is not available from activestate as a package. Makefile and nmake seem to work. nmake test first failed with a message that it could not find msvcr80.dll. I had msvcr70.dll installed already, So I installed msvcr80.dll in the system32 folder and now it fails with a runtime error saying that the app tried to load the c++ runtime library incorrectly. I ran nmake install anyway and a simple perl script using the module fails the same way. Anybody run into this problem? Any ideas? Thanks
