The commands seemed to work, although its not completing the install. I also had to punch a few holes in my firewall. haha! Not knowing a lot about this way of compiling I'd probably need to research more. I'll have to look into it later or consult the group in another thread. Below is the trail end of the install to show the error. If you wish to respond write me at crabbdean at hotmail.com rather than dirty this thread with an adjunct conversation.

Removing previously used \.cpan\build\Win32-API-0.41

  CPAN.pm: Going to build A/AC/ACALPINI/Win32-API-0.41.tar.gz

Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good

The monastery collapses discussion nodes when they get too deep. Responding here is not a problem for those reading this thread as the nodes *will* collapse.

Anyhow, you need to switch into c:/.cpan and run the test suite, see what fails, you won't have as much control from CPAN.pm. make, make test, make install. If you are *very* brave, you might be able to skip "make test" -- but I don't recommend it.
