Unfortunately, there are several forces working against me, firstly my complete novice knowledge of Perl and secondly my bemusement at the totally different interface and setup of WinCE (it does deserve the name).

I don't even have ppm.

The error message I get when I run the makefile is:

"Can't locate auto/POSIX/autosplit.ix in ......." goes off the page and there is no scroll bar or wrap round

"at /Storage Card/perl58m/lib/POSIX.pm ........."

"Can't locate DBI/DBD.pm in @INC (@INC co........"

"BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at \St........."

I don't think that anything that works under windows works on WinCE. Everything seems specifically compiled/written for these devices
