After downloading the package with te module:

in the created folder:
perl Makefile.pl PREFIX=<path to folder where you want to install the module>
make install PREFIX=<path to folder where you want to install the module>
in the scripts that use the module before calling use add the following line:
use lib "<path to the folder where you installed the module;";

I would love to give the "how to install a perl module in different folder and use it from there" a try. I see no download of any files for Makefile.pl or any other on page http://www.Planet-Source-Code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=492&lngWId=6 to try this. Can you please send me a copy at support@designerwiz.com ? Thank you. Ray (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
but some modules want to access other modules.... it is a real problem.... (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
