I don't have the binaires for Pg ( easy to google for them ) and he is in the exploratory stage for an alternative to MySQL on Windows so I offered my suggesion. I think the Oracle suggestion is good too.
But, I have to say, Amonotod's reply was implying to be rude to me. I think poking in comments like "instead of answering your question..." is not called for. Some etiquette would go a long way. If you can't be nice and helpful, then don't reply. Why are you here? I would just as soon remove myself from this list if this is to be expected and only Tim and few others should be allowed to comment? -----Original Message----- From: amonotod [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, April 01, 2005 10:00 AM To: dbi-users@perl.org Subject: RE: :Pg for Windows > From: "Moosmann, James" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: 2005/04/01 Fri AM 08:45:15 CST > > > From: Robert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Sent: Friday, April 01, 2005 9:06 AM > > Does anyone know if (and where) there is a DBD::Pg compiled as a PPD for > > Windows?
