There's no way to resolve this issue short of upgrading the perl version itself?

Perhaps a required shared library or dll isn't installed where expected at C:\Perl\test.pl line 43" A similar problem was reported earlier and the suggested resolution was to download the ppm's from a site that doesn't let me in (esoftmatic.com) so I'm not sure how to proceed at this point. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Perl 8.1.7 build 815 DBI 1.52 DBD-Oracle 1.17 Oracle Client 9.2.0.1 Windows 2000 5.00.2195 SP4 Thanks, Amir.
