Dave,
Thanks for your reply. But I had already had
DB_File.zip like you told me below. The problem is
when I run 'ppm install DB_File.ppd', I got that
error: Error installing package 'db_file.ppd': Could
not locate a PPM binary of 'db_file.ppd' for this
platform.
I think this is caused by my windows setting, because
I was trying at home, it works. Unfortunately I don't
know which setting in windows I have to change.
Thanks,
Ivan D
