Unfortunately, the OLE stuff is Win32 specific, so I don't think you're going to have any luck at all in attempting to make your perl run under FreeBSD. See http://search.cpan.org/author/GSAR/libwin32-0.191/ and http://search.cpan.org/src/GSAR/libwin32-0.191/README > I saw the port; > p5-OLE-Storage_Lite, but when installed it doesn't seem to recognize it. That's a very different animal to the Win32::OLE module I'm afraid. No good to you.
