I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

Bad file descriptor
Hi There , Has anybody ever seen this before. I'm using:
my $word = Win32::OLE->GetActiveObject('Word.Application') || Win32::OLE->new('Word.Application') || die "$!" ;
...and it works fine on 2 machines, but not 2 others. The error I get is:
Bad file descriptor at C:/APPS/lib/dbfuns.pm line 1123.
All machines have the same version of Perl (5.8.8 Buid 819) and the OSs are: Working machines: XP and Win 2000 Not-Working machines: XP (same patch level as above!) and Win 2003 Any ideas? I'm stumped! Cheers in advance, Steve
