Hi Can u please tell me where i need to use ' instead of " and what will be the syntax of that string. Because when I am using perl -MDBI -e "print $DBI::VERSION;" on my linux system I am not getting any output but the second option is working fine.

If you do it under Unix/Linux, use ' instead of ". Octavian
