Depending on the actual db engine, you could either use the Win32::API module or the MySQL interface module if using the mySQL db engine.

Which db engine are you trying to access?

Subject: seeking functionality

Dear Wise Gurus-

I just started searching cpan, but this seems like it will be a long drawn 
out search, so i figured I would ask early.

Does anyone know of packages that allow perl to interact with a windows 
database engine?

The following is a _vbscript_ example. I'm trying to connect to a db engine 
so that I can automate reporting functionality needed.

Thank you in advance, 

-josh


vb example:

        Dim Server As IUpdateServer
        Dim AdminProxy As AdminProxy

            Console.WriteLine("Getting update status...")

            'connect to the local server
            AdminProxy = New AdminProxy
            Server = AdminProxy.GetUpdateServer
