Thanks for the various responses.
It was easier than I thought to get all the tools together and setup
Windows paths for the build process. I've been successful now on Windows.
BUT... how do I make a package which DOES NOT require R CMD INSTALL to
install? Obviously, it should not be required for everyone to have Perl
on their Windows box to install a package.
Well, you can build a binary bundle for Windows (as it happens on CRAN),
then just you (but not your users) need the tools installed.

When I tried to install the .tar.gz file from the GUI, I got the same
errors as I did when I used the version I had built on my Apple.
Error in gzfile(file,"r") : cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning messages:
1: In unzip(zipname, exdir=dest) :error 1 in extracting from zip file
2: In gzfile(file,"r"):
cannot open compressed file
'multgeneriskpredperf_1.0.tar.gz/DESCRIPTION', probable reason 'No such
file or directory'
Thanks, Daryl

You need to INSTALL a source package (that has been build) as on any
other platform. How to colect the tools in order to make R CMD INSTALL
work under Windows (and other OSs) is described in the R Installation
and Administration manual.
