in thread Recieving input during runtime..

Which version of ActiveState Perl are you using. Which repositories do you have set up? Are you able to install modules via PPM? Is that ('no such package') the complete message, or is there anything else whe should know?

Update:

Show us how you tried to use perl2exe to create the exe. Stop asking us to guess what could be wrong. If you used the -gui option, I'm sure you read the manual:

"Create a no-console executable. This can be used for Tk and Win32::GUI applications. I/O to STDOUT and STDIN will not be visible. If your application does not work do not use the -gui option while testing as it will hide possible error messages. Applies to Windows version only."

    I used command perl2exe scriptname.pl to create executable. I am able to install modules via ppm, only thing i am not able to install via ppm is MinGW. I tried installing pp via ppm and i got message to install it manually. I nnede xml::parser as prerequisite. so i tried installing it.

    xml::parser requires c compiler. I tried installing MinGW via installer, but it did not work. So i tried using ppm install MinGW which also did not work.

    I really apologise for making you guess, but i am really new to programming and have no idea which factors may matter for the perticular issue.

      I don't mean to sound offensive, but "it did not work" isn't much to go on. I've asked you previously to be specific. Look at my previous post, I asked questions pertinent to your issue which you have not answered.

      You need to be specific. Read my previous post again, read How do I post a question effectively?, understand what it's telling you, and tell us what we need to know in order to help you.

        I am sorry... My mistake. I was taking input file name as argument from command line. And then i was converting my script into exe. That was the reason exe was not asking for any input. I gave particular path for input file and then tried again. It is working fine now.

        Thank you so much Marto and sorry for all the trouble
