help with what? you need to explain what your problem is. if you don't know what your problem is then it would probably help to throw in or die $! (see below) wherever you think there could be a problem, use warnings and diagnostics, or try using the debugger (-d in the command line).

I don't remember exactly which ones, but a lot of the OLE functions return 0 or undef on a success (as if using perl in a windows environment is not annoying enough already) so make sure you RTFM so you know if you need to use  and die in those cases


$,=qq.\n.;print q.\/\/____\/.,q./\ \ / / \\.,q.    /_/__.,q..
Happy, sober, smart: pick two.
