Yes, I already downloaded this module, but it does not work with Active State 5.8. Unless I installed something wrong.

    Yes, you must have done something wrong. I have

    c:\temp>perl -v This is perl, v5.8.0 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread (with 1 registered patch, see perl -V for more detail) Copyright 1987-2002, Larry Wall Binary build 805 provided by ActiveState Corp. http://www.ActiveState. +com Built 18:08:02 Feb 4 2003
    and Win32::Perms 20020605 and everything works fine.

    How did you install the module? Could you try to uninstall it and then do this:

    c:\> ppm ppm> rep add RothConsulting http://www.roth.net/perl/packages (some messages I can't remember) ppm> search Win32::Perms Searching in Active Repositories 1.

      Did exactly what you said. I'm getting a "No suitable installation target" error now, which points to version incompatiblity. Any ideas?
        I downloaded ActiveState 5.8.4 and now it magically works. Who knows. :-)
