Hey guys, I am rather new to Perl and am by no means an expert. I have recently written a simple .pl and have been trying to compile it to a .exe. I have downloaded Wx::Perl::Packager, and placed the corresponding headers at the top of the program beneath #!/usr/perl/bin. The PerlApp always reaches an error and cannot locate a file when it attempts to compile with the Wx headers:

#!/usr/bin/perl use Wx::Perl::Packager; use Wx;

It said cannot locate Wx.pm @ (path). I corrected that by pointing the directory to a different location. Should work now right?

Wrong, it cant find ANOTHER file. This is a chain of events that has been occuring. I am sure I am doing something fairly obvious wrong, but cannot spot it. Please, could someone tell me what is wrong or perhaps lead me through the steps required to convert a .pl to a .exe using PerlApp? Keep in mind, I am a beginner. Thank you very much.
