Hello,
  I installed ActivePerl, then wrote up a sample helloworld.pl script,
stored it on the desktop, then ran this command from the cmd prompt.

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator> perl C:\Documents and
Settings\Administrator\Desktop\ helloworld.pl

i.e., perl <path name>\ filename.pl (is this right?)

I get this prompt from the interpreter

Can't open perl script "hellowowrld.pl": No such file or directory

Notice the spelling of the .pl script.  I think you made a typo
when trying to run it.

What is it that I could be overlooking.

Thanks for responses.
