I'd like to be able to check if a given date is between 2 other specific dates (these 2 will always be within the 60 days mof the date when the script is run). I have seen postings that indicate using the Date::Calc module - actually the Date-Calc module which I read somewhere is the compiled binary version of the module so I installed it via PPM. However in browsing this module, I found that it contains C components so requires the C compiler which I do not have on my Windows 2000 system.
Or perhaps there is some easier way to determine if the given date falls between the 2 other specified dates?
Btw, I am new to Perl. I also went to http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/perl/win32-bin/ but got "The page cannot be found" for each link I tried there. I'd appreciate any help that can be offered.Thanks. Stacy

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
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).
