thanks for your help.
Seems like I didn't have the whole svn package.
I reinstalled the svn and made sure I pick the "command tool" and now the
svn commands work for me.

Though I have a problem with the tag command:

I wrote a script in perl:
my $target_path = "file:///C:/svn_repos3/trunk/Widget3"
my $tag = "file:///C:/svn_repos3/tags/Release_63"

system ("svn copy -m \"tagging the file\" \"$target_path\" \"$tag\" ");

and got the following error:

svn: E160005: Invalid control character '0X0a' in path 'Release_63\012'

Does anyone know what this error is?

thanks!!
