You need to show the complete code.  I would suspect that you are not
including the Word constants using Win32::OLE::Const.  If you are
using "strict" and "warnings" then you would have been told by Perl.

But without seeing your complete source it is impossible to tell.

You also didn't mention how the script output is different from
the manual output.
