Hi,
I'm currently writing a perl utility that connects to a database to perform
some maintenance.   The database might be one of three possible platforms,
Oracle, SQL Server or Access, and I need a way to determine the database
type that I'm connected to.  The DBI:ODBC documentation refers to a get_info
method but the version that I'm running (0.28) does not appear to return
anything.  I have found references to newer versions of the ODBC dbi but I
can't find any that are available via ppm.  Since I don't currently have a
compiler for my W2K machine, I'm looking for a binary distribution.  If you
have one or know where I can find one, I would greatly appreciate the help.
Alternatively, if you know how to determine this information from the
version I'm currently running, that would also be helpful.

Thanks in advance.
Regards,

Perry.
