My preference is Config::IniFiles. You can see others by searching on CPAN.
http://search.cpan.org/doc/WADG/Config-IniFiles-2.27/IniFiles.pm You also can't load files from CPAN using PPM. PPM loads from the ActiveState repositiory only! If you want to use CPAN modules you need to find nmake.exe, it comes with C++ or can bo downloaded from ftp.microsoft.com... I forget where it lives though. For some modules (ones with C code) you will also need C++ installed, but even then you may have some problems. To search in PPM go into the tool and type "search ini". A few other options will show up.

I am still awaiting to hear an answer... My original post had all the code to the .pl, and the output to show how it is failing. Let me know if I need to repost the code.
