Michael,

Please send questions to the list. I'm not a private support channel and you will likely find more help faster there.

I have the Cywin version of perl installed on a Windows 7 computer, and
it does not have a perldoc executable.

How can I get perldoc functionality?

Hmm, when I go here: http://cygwin.com/packages/

and enter 'perldoc' in the search box and hit the 'Go' button, it tells me that the Perl package contains the perldoc executable in /usr/bin

So I would guess that your problem is that you have an old, incomplete or broken Perl package in your Cygwin install (solution: refresh the package), or that someone has installed it from source (solution: ask that person to install perldoc)

My advice is to try and fix that. If you have problems, you should ask on a Cygwin list: http://cygwin.com/lists.html

While you are waiting to resolve that issue, the perldoc pages are online at http://perldoc.perl.org/

Cheers,
Michael
