Not sure what you mean by "grabbed from CPAN". You have to install modules, typically using the steps: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install You can also do the above with the CPAN module. You should *not* just copy files around. Always use the proper install process. The @INC is essentially "burned in" to your perl executable. When you install a module, the perl Makefile.PL step uses the locations in your perl executable to decide where the module should be installed. When you later use the module, it will be in the right place in @INC. So: 1. Make sure you have installed the module properly. 2. Make sure you are using the same perl binary in your script that uses the module as you did when you installed the module. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
