Sorry, I lied. I guess there is source code for Data::UUID but I cannot get it to work on windows.
I tried ppm install Data::UUID and it could not find it. I tried downloading and following the instructions in the README me but that produced a lot of syntax errors. Can someone suggest how I might make Data::UUID install? This happens to me a lot. I'm running activestate perl 5.8.7 on Win2003 Server.
