Thanks very much for your help on this, it is appreciated. I downloaded and
ran the appropriate makefiles as the readme files said, however when I get
to running install Bundle::DBD::mysql then I get an error telling me that it
does not have an associated bundle so it cant continue...I know this is
probably because I have done something out of sequence ( am sure its a case
of "user error" :-) ) any idea's what I have done ?? I have gone back and
retraced my steps and ran the whole process right from downloading again but
with the same results...any idea's ??
Thanks again for the help
Regards
Davidt

Perl may be installed, but it's not necessarily true that DBI is installed.
You'll need to obtain and install it (along with DBD::mysql and
Data::Dumper). Links for obtaining these are available at:
http://www.mysql.com/downloads/api-dbi.html
If these things are installed but in a directory that Perl doesn't normally
looks in, put a line like this to modify your script's search path:
use lib qw(/path/to/directory/);
This should go before the use DBI; line.
