I am using RedHat Linux version 8.0, and the Perl version I am currently using is 5.6.1. I looked at the page you sent me and tried doing the 'support for dbi'. I installed the driver, did all the necessary work that was stated on the page, and am trying to execute a test file with the contents: use DBI; $dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:ODBC:DSN', 'user', 'password'); I keep getting the following error: Can't locate loadable object for module DBI in @INC (@INC contains: /root/perl / usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i586-linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6 .1/i586-linux /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at /usr /lib/perl5/5.6.1/i586-linux/DBI.pm line 255 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i586-linux/DBI.pm line 255. Compilation failed in require at testdb.pl line 6. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at testdb.pl line 6. I guess this might also have to do with the fact that the three relevant files that I stated in the other email are missing? Any help with this would greatly be appreciated. Thanks again for your help! Sincerely, J. Simoni _______________________________________________ sapdb.general mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://listserv.sap.com/mailman/listinfo/sapdb.general
