When you require "\\someplace\\somefile", perl tries to find "some_file" in the path you've specified. If it can't be found there, it goes looking for \\someplace\\somefile in @INC. And if it can't find it there, then it complains that \\someplace\\somefile can't be found in @INC - which is misleading. In your case it would seem that \\includes\\28ESP.pl can't be found .... I assume because \\includes\\28ESP.pl is being interpreted as C:\\includes\\28ESP.pl, whereas it needs to be interpreted as D:\\includes\\28ESP.pl (or something like that).
