Searching for 'c:\temp\Win32-API-0.41\API.pm' returned

Firstly, ppm installs ppd (Perl Package Description) files not pm
(Perl Module) files and secondly PPM will download the ppd for a given
module for you.  All you need to say is

ppm.bat install Win32-API

If the target machine cannot reach the Internet, then you can manually
download the ppd for a given module here
http://ppm.activestate.com/PPMPackages/zips/ and install it with

cd \tmp
unzip Win32-API-0.46.zip
ppm.bat install c:\tmp\Win32-API.ppd

The following url has detailed instructions on how to use the GUI
version of ppm.

P.S. FWIW, I am using the "Perl Black Book" to find my
way around...

Try Learning Perl (the Llama) and Programming Perl (the Camel).
