Are there any other (Win32) dll's installed under the '/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8/cygwin/auto/Win32/' tree ? If so, can those modules be successfully loaded ? There must surely be something different about the Win32::OLE dll, or the directory that houses it .... but it's hard to spot from here :-) You might have to consult a Cygwin-specific list ... actually ... try the 'libwin' list first. I think there are some Cygwin people subscribed there who probably aren't on *this* list - and since Win32::OLE is part of libwin, it would be a reasonable place to post.
