I would definitelly use DBD::ODBC, which will then be easily ported to other
db's if ever required.

Subject: What's the best driver choice to use in a W2000/ActiveState Perl/
MS Access environment?
I've just been handed a really tight deadline project, building some
Perl
CGI functionality on a Windows 2000 box using Active State Perl and a
Microsoft Access DB. Looking through my O'Reilly DBI book, it looks
like
there are potentially several different ways to hook up to the DB....
DBD::ADO
DBD::ODBC
Win32ADO
Win32::DBIODBC
.....I'm a little confused and freaked by all of this, is there an
obvious (or
even probable) best choice for which module(s) I should use?
