you're right; upon further reading (i'm still researching) i discovered that discrepancy and removed the "/DBI", now i get Can't locate loadable object for module DBI in @INC (@INC contains: /asi/home/ca/jm5379/modules /usr/perl5/5.00503/sun4-solaris /usr/perl5/5.00503 /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.005/sun4-solaris /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.005 .) at /asi/home/ca/jm5379/modules/DBI.pm line 254 which does show my dir prepended to @INC. looking just now in DBI.pm i see the following notes a little above line 254: # If you get an error here like "Can't find loadable object ..." # then you haven't installed the DBI correctly. Read the README # then install it again. so i guess just copying the file isn't going to cut it this time. oh well. thanks for the quick response. back to the drawing board. -- since this is a gmail account, please verify the mailing list is included in the reply to addresses -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
