Thanks for the advise. I followed the instructions, but still having no luck. Errors are appearing. If it produces errors during the installation, will I need to uninstall activestate or can i just keep trying. Also tried using CPANAny more ideas would be great. I had a link to download this module using ppm a few months ago. Thanks
I've included my output from attempting to install GD::Graph

(F) You said to do (or require, or use) a file that couldn't be
found. Perl looks for the file in all the locations mentioned in @INC,
unless the file name included the full path to the file. Perhaps you
need to set the PERL5LIB or PERL5OPT environment variable to say where
the extra library is, or maybe the script needs to add the library name
to @INC. Or maybe you just misspelled the name of the file. See
perlfunc/require and lib.
