Age old question of XP Install: msg#00002

Subject: Age old question of XP Install
Hi All,

I'm sure this has been asked 1000 times but...

I'm looking at library management system for a small org comparing MyPhpLib, OpenBiblio and Emilda. Of the three Emilda looks most suitable but for reasons beyond my control its a no Linux house.

So I'm trying to install on Windows for my sins. I've the db client stuff going but as stated on the Emilda site (I believe) the main problem is getting Net::Z3950 installed. Is there any idiot guide to doing this, or is the general consensus that it is not possible without a lot/too much work?

For reference, as I'm thinking of giving up on this, to those who may try after me here's some changes I made to get things going under Windows:

1) Had to use PHP 4, as the yaz dlls for 5 were compiled to still use php4ts.dll - even the latest.
  2) Changed edit_row in mgmnt.inc to check record==null.
3) Modify the perl scripts to use <DRIVE>:\<PERL_HOME>\bin instead of /usr/bin/perl

I'd also be interested to hear from anyone who's got Emilda working on an MS OS.

Thanks,
John

PS - The Linux install is great, well done folks!
