problem installing date::calc on win box

[news-acct]

running ppm install date::calc on win xp sp2.
I get the following reply:::
Searching for 'date::calc' returned multiple results. Using 'search' ins
Searching in Active Repositories
1. Date-Calc [5.3] Gregorian calendar date calculations
2. Date-Calc [5.4] Gregorian calendar date calculations
3. Date-Calc-Iterator [1.00] Iterate over a range of dates

Is this the correct module for Win XP? I can install it using ppm
install date-calc. however, I can not use it

get error msg:
D:\scram\ner\ko\be> perl date1.pl
Can't locate date.pm in @INC (@INC contains: C:/Perl/lib
C:/Perl/site/lib .) at
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at date1.pl line 2.

the module does exist in: C:\Perl\site\lib\Date\Calc.pm

thanks

You should also have shown us what date1.pl contains. The error message
indicates that somewhere in your script you have written:

use date;

If you want to load the Date::Calc module, you need to change that to:

use Date::Calc;

Cheers,

But Perl is a case-sensitive language. You didn't write:

use date;

or

use data::calc;

by any chance?

If so, oh dear.
