| I am using perl and right now I am so pissed at ODBC. I originaly asked the question because I can not get ODBC working on my local Vista machine. What other ways of connecting to an MS SQL 2k5 DB in Perl are there and what do you recomend using?-- If I get used to envying others...Those things about my self I pride will slowly fade away.-Stellvia |
