Hi, have a read at A guide to installing modules for Win32 by holli. It covers installing modules on ActiveState Perl. To use a module in a Perl script: `#!/usr/bin/perl use Search::VectorSpace;` [download] The VectorSpace documentation shows you how it should be used. Hope this helps. Martin	[reply] [d/l]

You can use ppm util for installing this module on activeperl. Download the module, put it in any directory ("modules" for example) and write a command: ppm install C:/modules/module_name.ppd	[reply]

Try This, Open command prompt C:> PPM ..... At PPM prompt Type these. PPM> rep add LocalPath "C:/YourModulesFolder" PPM> s vector PPM> install <search Results Number indicating your vectorSpace.pm> The other way of doing this is C:> PPM install --location=. C:/YourModulesFolder/vectorspace.ppd Give it a try and hope it works out. regards Amar	[reply]
