Hi,

If I may add one word to davido's commet:
"..You will need to specify which Perl interpreter to use by either modifying your PATH.."
And that you can achieve in so many ways. Presently, I have both ActivePerl and Strawberry Perl installed and I switch between both using simple bat files to modify my PATH like so:

• activePerl.bat file

  rem Return Perl to ActivePerl path
    
    path;
    path D:\Perl\site\bin;D:\Perl\bin;C:\PHP\;C:\Program Files\PC Connec
  +tivity Solution\;%SystemRoot%\system3;%path%
  
   rem clear the screen
   cls
  [download]

• strawberryPerl.bat file

  rem Add Strawberry Perl to path
    
    path C:\strawberry\perl\bin;%path%
  
    rem clear the screen
    cls
  [download]


All I do after then is to run any of these bat files to switch. And voilą am :-} `happy`!!!
Hope this helps.
