Are you on a win32 machine?<br />

I use phone link to an NT box<br />

Is the machine on which you execute the code a win32 machine? &nbsp;If it is, you can use the &nbsp;Win32::ODBC module. &nbsp;If not, you're either out of luck, or you can set up a perlserver on a Win32 machine which will do it for you.<br />

My server admin came back to me with the following answer:<br />
<br />
The answer is, yes we are WindowsNT which is 32 bit. &nbsp; They are<br />
referring to a library module that contains code for accessing Access dB's using ODBC. &nbsp;Anyway, we need to find this Perl library routine and load it on the server so that you can call it's routines. &nbsp;If you find something, Email it to me and I'll load it on the server and send you the path.<br />
<br />
Does this help?<br />

Perl and Microsoft Access

Perl is a high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming languages with over 25 years of development. Perl 5 runs on over 100 platforms from portables to mainframes and is suitable for both rapid prototyping and large-scale development projects.  Perl gained widespread popularity as a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) scripting language, in part due to its regular expression and string parsing abilities. In addition to CGI, Perl is used for graphics programming, system administration, network programming, finance, bioinformatics, and other applications.
