Problem with installing modules

Hello. I'm new here, but started to use Perl. I need to install few
modules, such as Win32::API. This one, and some other just can't
install. The problem is like this:

Probably you don't have a C development environment (C-compiler, linker,
libraries, ...) installed.

If you use ActiveState Perl, you should try install the modules using "ppm":

C:\>ppm
ppm> help
ppm> install Win32-API
...
Successfully installed Win32-API version 0.41 in ActivePerl 5.8.7.813.

More precisely, the OP appears to have something other that the
Microsoft command line C compiler installed using the name "cl".
