Hi All I'm having the same problem. I've had a look in the Activestate 5.6 repositories http://ppm.activestate.com/PPMPackages/zips/6xx-builds-only/. I can find the DBD-Oracle PPM there.
But the 5.8 repositories still doesn't have the DBD-Oracle PPM http://ppm.activestate.com/PPMPackages/zips/8xx-builds-only/Windows/ I've searched the net and the closest I got was a thread that said go here http://xmlproj.com/PPM/. Unfortunately this web site is either down or closed from where Im sitting. Can anybody tell me where I might find the PPM for the AS perl 5.8 version of DBD-Oracle. Thanks Dave :-) [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Danny Miller) wrote in news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]: > Hi all, just downloaded and installed (successfully) ActivePerl for my > win2k machine.
