I am writing a CGI script that needs to query a FilePro database. FilePro stores its data in proprietary binary file formats. My company already has code that, from Perl, will execute a FilePro program and read that program's output from the disk. My task is to bypass that option and read directly from the FilePro Files. I presume that I can write code to to read the binary files and parse the results, but I'd like to find out if there is something already written that I can use. I have searched google/cpan and so far have no luck.
The CGI script I'm writing will take an input string and perform actions based on whether that input string is found in any of the records in the FilePro database. It will also need to get the rest of the information in the matching record. If there is a more appropriate forum for this request, please let me know. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
