Hi,
I'm not sure whether I should be celibrating or commiserating
but I wrote my first perl proggie to run under windows. Its a simple
DBI affair to copy data from a FoxPro database on NT to a mysql database
on linux. The proggie runs on a windows machine and has DSN's to both
databases.
My question is this - is there a standard way of getting the
list of tables and description of them?? eg:
In horracle - select * from tab; desc tablename;
In mysql - show tables; desc tablename;
Does anyone know how can I do this in Foxpro or an ODBC database independent
method?
Regards,
