in reply to WIN32-API Purgetory

jkretlow,
ActiveState has a link to the older versions on their download page: See http://downloads.activestate.com/ActivePerl/Windows/5.8/ to pick up 5.8.7 if that's what you need.

Update: You can also pick up Win32::API v 0.41 here.

Cheers - L~R

    Thanks, that will solve the immediate problem.
    The secondary problem is how to get the newer releases to work? I don't want to have to maintain multiple releases unless absolutely necessary

      You start with error messages, dependencies and version information

        No error message is provided just the Microsoft send error report pop-up even when use strict and perl -w are used
