If you relay write C:/Perl/bin/perl5.8.8.exe perl -v. this is wrong you are running a exe file that dont exits erl5.8.8.exe with perl as a parameter, and thats is what the errro says. 1. The installation from activestate normal add the path to perl for you so test writing perl -v if not test C:/Perl/bin/perl -v // Anders. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
