As gryphon says above, this is possible. However, you may want to check some of the discussions (look for perl2exe) that we have had about it at this site and think very carefully about your desicion. Often times there is no really good reason to use this application, and is some cases it can be dangerous.	[reply]

Hey all I actually posted something similar to this a few weeks ago and here's what I found. Get perl2exe. It's freeware, and it's good. I've compiled 4 different programs with it, and they all run well. Great help files, good support on there end, even if you don't buy the enterprise edition. John	[reply]
