I think you should first try to upgrade your ActiveStatePerl from
5.6.1 to the current release 5.8.x
You would be surprised how many "weird" problems are fixed by getting
the latest release, which is especially true with "Perl on Windows".

Message-Id: <43aff269$0$26282$626a14ce@news.free.fr>
Hello,
I'm working on WinXP and I want to kill a process by its ID.
I use the function Win32::Process::KillProcess($id,9) but the following
error message is displayed :
"Your vendor has not defined Win32::Process macro KillProcess used at
myprog.pl line 90 at D:\Outils\Perl\site\lib/Win32/Process.pm line 46."
What is the problem ?
Thanks for your help.

The problem is that the module cannot autoload the KillProcess macro, as
it's telling you. I can't reproduce this error on XP Pro with ActivePerl
5.8.7 Build 813 using Win32::Process v. 0.09, so why this is happening is a
bit hard to guess at. You could try upgrading/reinstalling Win32::Process
and see if it's just a bad dll.
