Doug, Is "/includes" in the root of the drive? If not, you'll probably need to use the full path in your require statement (i.e. Require '<drive>:/path/28ESP.pl').
As for what you typed here, the proper way to do it (based on what you wrote) would be: Use lib 'c:/path/to/parent/of/includes'; #This line should include the 'includes' folder and the full path to it Require '28ESP.pl'; # Just the file to require. The above statement should set the path for you.
