Bring up a console window and work from there. Goto Start, Program Files, MS-DOS Prompt. You then need to navigate to the directory your perl script is in, then type "perl scriptname.pl". What's happening is that your perl script is printing to the terminal then closing. As for how to get it to pipe the output to a browser, someone else will have to help you there. I use Linux where I run a web server which supports CGI's. Good luck, and don't give up yet. Perl is a powerful language, and you'll love it once you've gotten over some of these initial hurdles. >> Ken
