It's really not a Perl issue per se. I assume you're talking about variables used by Oracle libraries, like ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID. I advise you to *not* attempt to set or monkey with these variables inside the Perl script. The whole point of environment variables is so the user can establish his environment *before* invoking your script. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
