I need to send a variable type "Long" as one the arguments to an OLE function. There is no Perl equivalent to "Long", so does anyone know how I can trick OLE into thinking that I am sending a Long variable from perl. OLE complains if I just send a generic Perl scalar. Thanks for any thoughts. Michael _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/listinfo/perl-win32-users
