Thanks for all the suggestions! Unfortunately, I haven't managed to arrive at a happy conclusion, I reinstalled Perl, and reinstalled Inline. Inline itself seems to be fine, so I reckon the problem originates with the Java module.
Firstly, I can't use PPM to install the module. No packages have been made available. Secondly, I used ran "perl makefile.pl" to install the module. The first stage runs according to the installation instructions, but for some reason the rest of the series of 'nmake' commands are not recognised. Finally, I manually placed the necessary files in the correct dirs... The end result is: -C:\Test>perl greet.pl -perl greet.pl - -Bad command or file name -No files to copy. Previous command failed under command.com? at greet.pl line 4 -BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at greet.pl line 10, <DATA> line 59. (greet.pl line 4 being "use Inline Java...") According to the documentation, Inline::Java may still be unreliable, however, if anybody out there managed to get it to work on Win98 I'd be interested to learn how. Otherwise, thanks again for your time. Ger
