I don't know a whole lot about CGI script but i've been reading up on it. I downloaded ActiveState Perl, and was given a small perl script. I was told i should be able to access it and make it run by clicking on this link http://www.stuff.com/test_win.cgi. But that does not work. When i use dosprompt and navigate to that location and use the perl test_win.cgi command it works. I'm using windows server 2000 and IIS.

Thanks for any replies
