-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Oh sure. Some our production NT 4.0SP6a machines (also R5 Domino) use ActiveState perl, DBI, DBD and a custom Clarify module to speak to Oracle. It works so well that I had forgotten about it until you mentioned it. `ppm' or is that `ppd' is your friend. Go execute that from a console and exec `install DBI' and then whatever DBD is appropriate for you. Joshua b. Jore http://www.greentechnologist.org On Tue, 23 Apr 2002, Marc Olivier wrote: > Hello.
