ActivePerl module problem

    I'm trying to install a module in ActivePerl using the ppm utility.

    I've tried pointing to the online repository containing the ppd files and also downloading a zipped version and extracting to a local directory which I've also added to the repository.

    No new packages seem to get added to ActivePerl that I can choose to install.

    From the command line I've tried manually installing the packages as well. However I keep getting the message:
    "ppm install failed: The PPD does not provide code to install for this platform"

    I'm running on Windows 2000 Server so the platform should be supported.

    Anyone any clues??

    [RESOLVED]
    Installed an older version of ActivePerl than the latest version which was installed. What a load of boll0^!!
