Thanks Charles -

You were close, perhaps the actual inspiration for the ultimate solution,
which I emailed out at the same time you sent me your message to try:

use lib 'c:/path/to/parent/of/includes/';

require "includes/28ESP.pl";

I have found that this works:

my $mylib = 'includes/28ESP.pl';
require $mylib;

    OR 

require 'includes/28ESP.pl';         

Why the big difference between " and ' ???

    Hi.

    Try this. If it works, you can try shortening the first path. On my XP
system '.' works there.

use lib 'c:/path/to/parent/of/includes/';

require "includes/28ESP.pl";
