Hi, try this: 1. Choose the package you want to install from: http://www.activestate.com/PPMPackages/zips/6xx-builds-only/ ( 2. unzip the files into a temp directory 3. After the package files are extracted, open a command prompt and cd to the directory where the package files exist. eg. c:\temp 4. At the command prompt just type : ppm install <package_name.ppd> So for DBI you would type: ppm install dbi.ppd Say yes to the prompt and it will be done. 5. To verify the installation type: ppm query This will give you a list of the packages installed, you should see the DBI package in the list. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
