Home PC using XP Prof. SP1 with Oracle 9.2 DB installed. =
PERL5.005.03.exe installed.

I am new to the world of PERL. I have searched my PC and DBI.pm has not =
been installed on my PC.

I understand that I need DBI installed to connect to Oracle. =20

So, my question is where do I download DBI from and any suggestions on =
installing it?

Thanks much,

Hi,

I had problem installing modules with windows one way and the best way I did for me is to install via a very little program I made in perl here is the code Three lines of code
#!/usr/bin/perl use CPAN;
shell();
after running the program you will have cpan> and type install DBI and wait.
to finish the session just type quit;

That is my doing it cause i had a lot of problems.

For future reference the above 3 lines equate to:

perl -MCPAN -e shell
If you don't want to have to put them in a file...
