in reply to File::Spec::Win32; catpath

Its simple, you skipped reading perlintro and you didn't turn on diagnostics and you're not quoting the stuff you want to be quoting

Turn on diagnostics and read the more verbose error message you get, and report back

Also, obligatory, the checklists :) Basic debugging checklist , brian's Guide to Solving Any Perl Problem, CGI Help Guide , Troubleshooting Perl CGI scripts

    You are correct about me forgetting to use 'qw', and not reading perlintro - which I will. I did use diagnostics, which I omitted in my post (my fault). So, the error I provided is verbose. I do realize I need to do a lot of reading to get where I need to be. I appreciate your help and direction.
