Angela, you don't need to do a make. Download the GUI package from
sourceforge with PPM in the name for either Perl 5.6 or 5.8, then
install the win32-gui.ppd with
ppm install path\win32-gui.ppd

Subject: [perl-win32-gui-users] problems with running the
Makefile
Hi, I'm trying to install Win32-GUI but I failed. In the
command line, I first typed in "perl Makefile.PL" and it created a
Makefile. I then typed "nmake" as I am using Visual C++, but then I got
a lot of error messages as follows:
GUI_Options.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol

Stop.
What's the problem?
