What version are you running (see last paragraph for how to find out). I would expect to find it here instead (at least on my 5.8.6 Build 811 [slightly old] version): C:\Perl\html\OLE-Browser\Browser.html but regardless of where it is, continue on. > And I am getting: > Internet Explorer could not load the PerlScript engine.

I would expect you to get a line at the top that says that the file has some activex controls and you need to perform some action. This is what I get: "To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restricted this webpage from running scripts or Activex controls that could access your computer. Click here for options...

All you need to start coding in Perl is an editor and maybe a console window to run them from. After that you can get into more complicated stuff where you interact with a browser or the more esoteric Windoze features like OLE/ODBC etc. To start with, go to a console window and type "perl -v" and that should tell you if your install is ok and give you the version info. If the Perl tree didn't get added to your path, you may have to qualify it "c:\perl\bin\perl -v". _______________________________________________ ActivePerl mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
