Thank you for the suggestion, Tim.
Unfortunately, this is not something over which I have control.
Do you make this suggestion specifically because you recognize the error,
or just as a general suggestion?
If the former, do you think it would help if I "downgraded" MY version of
the DBI bundle?
If so, could you point me to any good documentation on how to
"uninstall" DBI and reinstall with a given version (I'm relatively new to
CPAN and haven't found documentation yet on how to specify a version when
installing a package).
Thank you again for your assistance.
Best Regards,
David Brown
