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.

Thanks & Regards in advance
Anirban Adhikary.

You can do:

perl -MDBI -e "print $DBI::VERSION;"

or shorter:

perl -M"DBI 999" -e1

which will give an error telling that this is a lower version of DBI than
the one requested and it will also give the version.

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