In that case, download the .ppd file and use "sneaker net" to get it to the target machine. Then use ppm command line to install the module.

    Thanks for all of the comments!
    I was not able to find a ppd file to download for the Date::Calc module. I ended up just going to the cpan website and copying and pasting the cacl.pm code. I then saved it in a directory that I created, C:\strawberry\perl\lib\Date.
    After that I ran a perl scrip that called the date calc module with the line of code:
    use Date::Calc;
    After that I just resolved the dependencies one by one.
    This solution is probably not feasible nor advisable for larger modules that have many dependent modules but it seems to be working for the Date::Calc module.
    Once Again Thanks!

        Strawberry Perl is a whole different critter than Active State Perl!!

        Not by much, only difference is included modules and licenses; this means its the exact same critter!!!!!
