Re^3: Win32::Sam / SAMIE

how would I go about editing the source code to make it run off of perl58.dll?

Sorry, I have no idea. I did play with it breifly several years ago, but abandoned it back then because it was very flakey. I seriously doubt there is much mileage in trying to upgrade it at this point.

Beyond I cannot help you much either as I haven't touched IE for many years other than that breif attempt to use Samie for a project which never went anywhere.

Ok, thank you for your efforts. however, I think I now have a bigger problem: I am now trying Win32::IE::Mechanize, but when I run it, i receive the same error, perl56.dll not found. Should i uninstall 5.8 and samie and install 5.10? I am receiving: `Undefined subroutine &Win32::IE::Mechanize called at C:\test.pl line 7 +.` [download] Do you know what could be causing this?

How and from where did you install Win32::IE::Mechanize? Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

Should i uninstall 5.8 and samie and install 5.10? I think it would be a good idea to eradicate that perl56.dll dependency - and that would be the best way to achieve it. (You could, if you wanted, stick with perl-5.8.8. I, personally, would go with 5.10, but the main thing is to escape that perl56.dll dependency.) Then, start with a fresh thread that outlines what you want to achieve, what you have done in pursuit of that goal, and what difficulties you have struck. Hopefully there'll be someone around who can help you through this in such a way that you don't need samie. Cheers, Rob	[reply]
