Hi, Thanks, I did see this and I did try it, but here's what I ran into: Z:\Perl>cd bin The system cannot find the path specified. Z:\Perl>cd ppm The directory name is invalid. Z:\Perl>ppm install Spreadsheet-ParseExcel No Perl script found in input Z:\Perl>cd Modules Z:\Perl\Modules>ppm install Spreadsheet-ParseExcel Installing package 'Spreadsheet-ParseExcel'... Error installing package 'Spreadsheet-ParseExcel': Could not locate a or package Spreadsheet-ParseExcel Z:\Perl\Modules>ppm install Spreadsheet-ParseExcel.ppd Installing package 'Spreadsheet-ParseExcel.ppd'... Error installing package 'Spreadsheet-ParseExcel.ppd': Read a PPD for et-ParseExcel.ppd', but it is not intended for this build of Perl (MS ulti-thread) I seem to have the wrong build of Perl installed... or something?

Hi, I contacted my system administrator, and it turned out to be an issue of permissions/access. It's now been installed, and your help is certainly appreciated, thank you very much.	[reply]
