Thanks. I at least know what the "use" is for :-) I was wondering if it should be used constantly. If it's just for development, then not an issue as I don't have an interest to develop pm's as of yet.
When I ran the example, it would error out, so this would be a question for another thread. Thanks again.

I.e. it's used using "nmake" and "nmake test" while installing the module, and possibly during development by the programmer. The "use" clause is there to force a script to use the development code rather that the version installed in c:\perl\site\lib. I may be wrong of course. /J -------- ------ ---- --- -- -- -- - - - - - Johan Lindström Sourcerer @ Boss Casinos [EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest bookmark: "Assembly Language Windows Applications" http://grc.com/smgassembly.htm dmoz (1 of 3): /Computers/Programming/Languages/Assembly/ 66 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
