note baperl well that works, but now my other perl programs give me the following error <code> Can't locate Date/Manip.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.15.2/i686-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.15.2 /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.15.2/i686-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.15.2 .) </code> I went into CPAN and ran <code>force install Date::Manip </code>but it doesn't seem to work...any suggestions....I had it working before I ran the <code>force install ExtUtils::Embed</code> 929064 929069
