Hi, In the following code I am using the Win32::PingICMP module to ping IP Addresses and print the roundtrip times. However, when I run the code I get the following error: Can't locate loadable object for module Win32::API in @INC <@INC contains: c:/Perl/lib/ c:/Perl/site/lib/.> at c:/Perl/site/lib/Win32/PingICMP.pm line 16. BEGIN failed -- compilation aborted at c:/Perl/site/lib/Win32/PingICMP.pm line 16. I have saved all the appropriate modules in the right directories as well. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could help me out here. Thanks. A.

#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use strict;
use Win32::ODBC; # Enables ODBC database connectivity
use Win32::PingICMP;

my $dsn = "postdev";
my $user = "archnas"; 
my $password = "something";

# Get all process related data from the database
# Declare Variables
my $rc;
my $sql;
my @ip;

# Open ODBC session to database
my($odbc_session) = new Win32::ODBC("dsn=$dsn; uid=$user; pwd=$passwor
+d;") or die "Error connecting to $dsn\n";

# Check for SQL errors
if(defined $rc)
  {
  my $sql_error = $odbc_session->Error;
  my @sql_error = split /([-\[\]"])/,$sql_error;
  print "$sql\n";
  print "SQL error: @sql_error[4,-2]\n";
  exit;
}

# Retrieve answerset          
while($odbc_session->FetchRow())
   {
       # Stores each IP Address in the @ip. 
    my $ip_add = $odbc_session->Data();
    #print "$ip_add\n";
    push @ip, $ip_add; # Pushes each IP Address in the @ip to the top.
+ 
   }

print map {"$_\n"} @ip;
    
    my $p = Win32::PingICMP->new();
    foreach (@ip) {my $ping = $p->ping($_, 5);
          if ($ping == 1){
          $rtime = $p->details->{roundtriptime};
                    }
            else {$rtime = 0;}
          print "ping of $_ took $rtime ms\n";
            }
    $p->close();

Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
