Apache::ASP is mostly compatible with PerlScript under IIS, with the exception of support of win32 COM objects like ADO db access. However, as Richard explains, most people on IIS would be using VBScript for their ASP applications, so would not be portable to Apache::ASP, which currently supports perl scripting only. However there are other alternatives for supporting VBScript/ASP on Apache, particularly with Chilisoft's ASP or Halcyon's Instant ASP. Both of these are commercial products however. Also, Ime Smits, cc'd on this email, has a perl utility that can convert VBScript ASP to perl scripting ASP for running under Apache::ASP. He might be able to offer this code to you in some form. -- Josh _________________________________________________________________ Joshua Chamas Chamas Enterprises Inc.
