nemes: you do have to put that in your scripts. But it's not #!c:\perl it's #!c:\perl\bin\perl.exe

Just like in UNIX, if you call up a script by your web server you need to have the location of the program at the top.

You don't need to add that line into your codes. You jst have to learn how to call up perl from DOS command prompt. Something which I was wary of.

ActiveState Perl should have a built in installer. Just click and follow the instructions

Are you using Perl for Windows ( www.activestate.com )?

If so, it should come with complete directions.

You would unzip it (I suppose, I installed mine) in c:\perl and run it from MSDOS.

hth,
