Just to let you know, I used the repository you suggested below (which wasn't in the documentation!), and it worked!
Thank you very much.

I even tried giving it a complete path "c:\yaddayadda". I haven't been able to get ANY modules installed on my NT SP6 system. Hi, If it gets to be too bothersome you can download the zip from http://www.activestate.com/PPMPackages/zips/6xx-builds-only/ and install (using ppm) as per the instructions in the 'readme' file contained in the zip.
