Compile errors

Albert059 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I'm using Open Perl IDE Version 1.0 to write code. When I compile,

Win32 does not define $Win32::VERSION--version check failed at ../perl5db.pl line 435.

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

Compilation failed in require at C:/Perl/lib/Win32.pm line 8.

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/Perl/lib/Win32.pm line 82.

Compilation failed in require at ../perl5db.pl line 435.

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

Compilation failed in require.

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

ends up on my error output.

I feel doomed to be always a beginner on such issues. A little help? Thanks in advance.

Check the installed version of Win32 - 0.39 does define `$VERSION` - at line 11. A user level that continues to overstate my experience :-))	[reply] [d/l]

Line 11 says "$VERSION = '0.39';".	[reply]

Do you get '0.39' as a response if you type `perl -MWin32 -e 'die $Win32::VERSION'` ? Any chance of having a look at (an appropriate snippet of) the require'ing code ? A user level that continues to overstate my experience :-))	[reply] [d/l]
