What kind of error messages are you getting. Running Win2k over here. Can you give an example of a script which doesn't work?

That's where I'm getting frustrated. For example, I'm treating them as "test" exercises and when I don't get them correct, I deem the chapter a failure, which is silly since there are 2 or 3 questions per chapter. Maybe I should treat them as "examples" instead. -----Original Message----- From: Kipp, James [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 25, 2003 8:40 AM To: Anthony Beaman; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Mastering "Learning Perl on Win 32 Systems" > Any advice on getting through the LP/Win 32 book?

Thanks!! :-) what exactly are you having trouble with? why don't you try writing a script that you think might be useful to you. that is how you really learn how it works -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ************************************************************************ Meteor web site http://www.meteor.ie ************************************************************************ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
