Hi Ben -

Your're doing great! I think your problem is
that you didn't get the module installed where
perl can see it. You can:

1. nmake install (you can always clean it out with
    nmake distclean), or
2. Set environment varible PERL5LIB to your
    module's location, or
3. Put:
    use lib "your module location";
    in your test script, or
4. Add your test script to the t subdirectory in
    your modules path with suffix .t and do:
    nmake test

Aloha => Beau;
