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. http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/docs/ActivePerl/5.8/faq/ActivePerl-faq2.html snip
P.S. FWIW, I am using the "Perl Black Book" to find my way around...
