Thank you Neil, I am running PHP5 under ApacheTriad. The Windows PHP install does not work on my XP Pro PC - Recieved errors "The procedure entry point_encode_pointer could not locate the dynamic link library MSVCR80.DLL. (I checked the file and path settings - these are correct) So I downloaded ApacheTriad - it installed OK and the PHP works in the Apache server only. I stall have the entry point error when using a CMD input. My questions are: Can I copy the PECL library into my C:\apache2triad directory and set a flag in the PHP.INI? If so where do I find a windows download of PECL or PEAR? Thank you.
