in thread successfull Installed module vanished

Did you try the ppd again? The real ppd and not the made up one.

I took your advice and copy the GMP.pm file into the Perl/lib/ Math Directory

I didn't say pick and choose files from the archive. Unzip the whole file

    Hi, you are right: I copied the PPD file AND the according tar.gz from the same site and now it works fine:
    D:\Perl\Module>perl -le"use Math::GMP;" Can't locate loadable object for module Math::GMP in @INC (@INC contai +ns: D:\per l\lib D:\perl\site D:/Perl/lib D:/Perl/site/lib .) at -e line 1 Compilation failed in require at -e line 1.

    The test works fine too:

    Thanks a lot!
