I am new to the world of PERL and need help to get started. I have the book: "PERL for Oracle DBA's". But this has not helped me get started. My background is Oracle as a DBA. I have a good background with SQL*Plus and PL/SQL. On my home PC I have XP Prof. and Oracle 9.2. My Oracle supports PERL but I cannot get it to work. It is not the latest release of PERL, but that is not a problem. When I can get it to work I can update at that time.
Any help with books for beginners or web sites will be greatly appreciated. Keep it very simple. Thanks much, Ken Janusz, CPIM
