hello all, thanks for your help in the past. I am new to SQL and Perl development with SQL. I just want to clarify something: is it possible to set up a cgi script that can send information to an sql database server on a "different" host? and if so, will this piece of code work for this purpose: $DSN = "driver={SQL Server};Server=$server; database=WhiteTiger;uid=$username;pwd=$password;"; $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:ODBC:$DSN") or die "$DBI::errstr\n"; will the ODBC and DBI module work on a unix machine running perl? PLEASE SEND YOUR REPLY TO: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thank You for your time! _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/listinfo/perl-win32-users
