You can turn on warnings, at least, from the command line when you invoke perl, e.g., 

    perl -w dubious_script.pl

You can also turn on warnings from within a script with the statement 

    BEGIN { $^W = 1; }

Without access to the strict module, you will have trouble using many, if not most, of the modules referred to by others. A very strange situation, as has been mentioned; are you sure it's not available?

    Anonymous monk,

    If I use the strict module, it throws an error saying that the used module cannot be found. Is there anyway I can confirm this? check some path may be..... I experience the same errors on using the date and the time modules. The only one that works is the Fcntl module. Please let me know your thoughts.

    Thanks..!!!
