Correct, they are standard modules - apparently not available any other way... I presume so that you know the standard ones are working for a given version of perl. You *could* download Perl 5.6, and transplant them... and fix the minor problem that OO wasn't properly implemented until 5.005_03. Honestly, upgrade to 5.6 something, or even 5.8 (is it out yet?) - even if you have to do paperwork, 5.004 is a largely unsupported version now and most modules require 5.005 or higher. You will get several security fixes into the bargain, if I remember correctly (read that someplace, not be using Perl *that* long :) Jonathan Paton __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
