Perl

The Perl examples require the Win32::OLE module to be installed. A typical install of ActivePerl includes this module, while Cygwin does not. You can verify that you have this module installed by typing the following at the command prompt, assuming perl is in your PATH:

$ perl -MWin32::OLE -e'__END__'

Nothing will be output should the command succeed.
On failure a message containing the text:

Can't locate Win32/OLE.pm in @INC (@INC contains: ... ).
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

will be output. In this case you will need to install Win32::OLE before running the examples either by downloading the source from CPAN or using the CPAN module.

When you have Win32::OLE installed you can start by running the command line sample, then try the CGI sample, if you have a webserver installed.
