in reply to Perl script creted using Active perl64bit doesnt work with 32bit OS

PerlApp can cross compile. No need to downgrade your installation, just tell it you want a 32bit executable.

Look to the "Target" field in the "Main" tab if you're a GUI user.

If you're a command line user, the --target and --list-targets options may interest you.
