Formulating a better title and asking the questions more clearly would make it much esaier for us to help you.

Second, if you want work with Perl on Windows, there are multiple options. Here are the ones i think a beginner should use:

I personally use ActivePerl (free) with the full (commercial) development tools (ActivePerl Pro Studio), which is most likely a little overkill for a beginner. You'd probably be better off using Strawberry Perl.

As for compiling the script to an EXE: It's better you learn how to do that yourself: Take a look at The Win32 Perl Wiki for an overview of available tools. What you want to use for compiling is probably something like PAR.
