start with the perldoc on regular expressions (type 'perldoc perlre').
There is also a great O'Reilly book called _Mastering Regular
Expressions_, which isn't all Perl oriented (but you should know regular
expressions if you use any kind of Unix shell).
As for DBI, start with http://dbi.symbolstone.org/index.html. This is the
main web site for DBI resources. And then get Tim Bunce's O'Reilly
_Programming the the DBI_.
It doesn't take long, when you start in Perl development, to get that
familiar blue section of book spines on your bookshelf...
