Do not go looking for it, it should already be there

How did you install Wx and Padre (urls)?

    If you are using the Active Perl environment (which I am), it seems that you can download and install Padre without downloading WX. There are two ways to do it, which I tried both, and they seem to work, (issued no errors when installing), except for that error described in my original post, when trying to run Padre.
    The two methods are:
    a. Add wxperl.co.uk/repository/package.xml to the PPM repository list, then ask PPM to download Padre
    b. Type "ppm install padre" at the command line.

      You need http://www.wxperl.co.uk/repository/Alien-wxWidgets.ppd

      Installing one of Padre or Wx should have installed Alien::wxWidgets, its where  blib\arch\Alien\wxWidgets\msw_2_8_12_uni_gcc_3_4\lib\wxmsw28u_core_gcc_wxp_binary_14_0.dll et all come from

        Thank you for your continued assistance.
        Running PPM (Perl Package Manager) shows:
        "Package: Alien-wxWidgets; Area: site; installed: 0.54; Abstract: building, finding and using wxWidgets binaries."
        It also shows: Alien-wxWidgets 0.52 "Developer version of wxWidgets binaries" as not installed.
