Last spring I desparately needed to use Perl's regular expression
capabilities in a VBA program that was doing transformations on
a huge Excel file.   I found that the Active State perl has a perl dll
(and directions for using it), so I installed the Active State perl.

I've had a chance in the last few days, finally, to install cygwin  1.1
properly (apparently -- enscript compiled out of the box), and have
also installed Charles Wilson's perl_5.6.0.

I'd just as soon de-install the Active State perl.  Question:  how hard
would it be to get at the perl functions from VBA using  libperl5_6_0.dll?

I apologize if this is documented, but I can't seem to find it.

Thanks,

John Velman
