Don't know if any of you guys have tied this, but i have

Don't know if any of you guys have tied this, but i have finally had success in instaling DB_File using the following method:
After installing the latest ActivePerl (5.8) I went ran the "Perl Package Manager" from the program start menu.

The program should open up a DOS screen.
From here you can type help for further commands.
Type: search DB_File

This will search the web for DB_File

Afer it brigns up a list, install the second "DB_File" that is listed (as I got two packages of the same name being displayed) This was item 7 on my list.

So what you type is: install 7

This should take care of everything else for you!

I'm sorry if this is what was being discussed in the threads above, it jsut didn't make sense to me until I found out for myself. Hope this explanation helps others.
