My apologies for being vague. I have the client sw installed. I can connect and work with my databases via SQLPlus just fine.
The issue Im having is I understand I need DBD::Oracle. I cant find it. If I go into ppm and do a search Oracle, I get: 1. Class-DBI-Oracle 2. Class-DBI-Oracle 3. DBIx-OracleLogin 4. DBIx-OracleLogin 5. DDL-Oracle not a DBD::Oracle in sight. OK. Where do I get this module from? ----- Original Message ----- From: Bob Showalter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Friday, October 10, 2003 10:53 am Subject: RE: Beginner Help Please- Oracle How To? > jeffrey pearson wrote: > > Im hoping I could get some beginner help please.
