It's a case problem. Try Win32::EventLog (notice the uppercase 'L'
there in the middle of 'EventLog') instead of Win32::Eventlog.

Subject: Win32::Eventlog on ActiveState
I need to read a Win2k Event log (Application). I am running Active State
(downloaded last week) on this machine. I got the Win32::Eventlog module
and setup per the documentation (I think)
use strict;
use Win32::Eventlog;
..
$Win32::Eventlog::GetMessageText=1;
my
$evtflags=$Win32::Eventlog::EVENTLOG_BACKWARDS_READ|$Win32::Eventlog::EVENTL
OG_SEQUENTIAL_READ;
.
..
$evthandle=Win32::Eventlog->new("Application")||($message=$message."Cannot
open eventlog\n");
...
...
I get a compile-time error
Can't locate object method new via package "Win32::Eventlog (perhaps you
forgot to load Win32::Eventlog
It is obviously loaded, I get no complaints about the variables used before
the call to new. I have compared this to the documentation and it is an
exact match. I also tried it without the || <statement> and got the same
problem. What am I doing wrong? Or is the documentation wrong?
