Hey Jim, Im not possitive but I have played with this before and I believe that the version of perl that is distributed with Sambar does not have the win32 module. I believe you want to download and install a version of active state perl to get all the works. Not that I have used the ODBC stuff before but I did have a need for active state and I would recommend laying it down outside of your sambar install for future update reasons, ie; c:\asperl or c:\program files\asperl\ With this you can continue using the sambar canned version along with active state when needed. Just reference your perl.exe locations differently in your scripts.
In addition you can visit the activestate.com website for tons and tons of doc on what you can do with it.. Last time I looked at it, it would be a full time job going through it all, but they have some nice search facilities to locate what you are looking for.
