Hi, It's look like a problem for find default libc function. It's strange.
Theoricly, ActivePerl use Visual C++ 6 msvcrt.lib. Are you using ActivePerl distribution with visual C++ 6 ? Look in your makefile, and search for LIBC entry, you must have : LIBC = msvcrt.lib If OK, check if you have this library in your Visual C++ lib directory. If LIBC is empty, change it and run nmake again. If it's work, you probably have a problem with your perl\lib\config.pm file. Edit it and change libc entry with libc='msvcrt.lib'. Rerun perl makefile.pl and LIBC entry should be correct.

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: NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'link' : return code '0x460' Stop. What's the problem?
