Works fine for me. So, could you show your exact paths where the module/script resides, and how you call the script that tries to use the module? Also, maybe print out the value of `$FindBin::Bin`.	[reply] [d/l]

You can push that parent dir in @INC in a begin block and use it. `BEGIN { push @INC, "../" } # then use package;` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Define "doesn't work". What error do you get?	[reply]
