You mean initially the way I set it up incorrectly? I didn't know

Nick,
Thanks for attempting to look into this, but I'm dealing with RedBrick

A quick look at the source shows lots of references to the DBD::ODBC namespace
so you will need to search and replace within the ODBC.pm file, looking for
the string DBD::ODBC. I suppose you should also change the Name attribute for
the driver handle (line 42 of $DBD::ODBC::VERSION = '0.28').

Yes Oliver, this is my understanding of the issue. As long as we're
talking specfics, this is a ODBC API for RedBrick, an IBM product
formerly Informix (no DBD-Infomix isn't for the DBMS). I actually
did try iODBC first, but was unsuccessful. Upon asking on the
RedBrick list I was contacted

The easiest way to do that is to compile DBD::ODBC to use a driver manager
such as unixODBC or iODBC, depending upon your platform, etc. The driver
manager, through odbc.ini or other config files, will "talk" directly to the
drivers. It soulds like you have built DBD::ODBC to connect directly to

apparently). I've had no response from the SAP DB people as yet.
IMHO, compiling DBD::ODBC against a proprietry interface should not be allowed
without a name change to the module.
