1) You need two modules: DBI and DBD::ODBC

2) You need to create an ODBC data source referring to the database
file.

3) Connect to the database like this:

$dbh = DBI->connect("DBI:ODBC:$DSN_NAME")
  or die "Couldn't connect to $DSN_NAME: $DBI::errstr\n\n";
# where $DSN_NAME is the name of the ODBC data source
# you created in step 2

> 1.way I can't install dbi when I am offline?

Because ppm needs a net connection so it can download the module for you
