I found a solution!   Just in case anyone else might someday be in the same situation.

You can launch the Perl Package Manager (PPM) from the command line and redirect  
command from a text file.  For example,

ppm < install.lst

the install.lst file might have the following commands

set confirm 0
install DBD::mysql
install Net::mysql
install Win32:OLE
exit

Voila!
