I don't know how.
Perl has a good tutorial very good inded, but what do i need to make
Perl run in windows and in Visual studio C++ express edition?

The recommended way of enabling Perl on a Windows machine is to download
and install an ActiveState build of Perl, available free of charge from
here

http://www.activestate.com/store/activeperl

That will allow you to run Perl programs, read the core
documentation, and install modules from the Internet.

Visual Studio C++ is for writing C++ code. You can embed Perl into C++
programs, but that is beyond normal beginner abilities. If that is what
you want to do, then run

perldoc perlembed

once you have Perl installed and it will explain how you should go about
it.
