Hi, Thanks to everyone for all their help and suggestions. I haven't had time in the last 24 hours or so to follow any of these up, but will pick things up again tomorrow. I just need to find a development machine around here with the right version of VC installed, or work out the firewall issues.
Once again, Thanks to everyone who took time out to help. Mark. -----Original Message----- From: Sterin, Ilya [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 05 February 2002 18:35 To: 'Jeff Urlwin '; ''Mark Buckle ' '; '[EMAIL PROTECTED] ' Subject: RE: ActivePerl & DBI - can't build DBI1.20 - and wheres DBD-Ingre s ? Thanks, Jeff. I'll keep that in mind:-) -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Urlwin To: Sterin, Ilya; 'Jeff Urlwin '; 'Mark Buckle '; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 2/5/02 10:50 AM Subject: RE: ActivePerl & DBI - can't build DBI1.20 - and wheres DBD-Ingre s ? Ilya, Well, er, you could be in trouble and may not be. I was paying attention to one of the Perl-Win32 lists and remember that SP4 was a BAD thing, as it changed object layout/sizes. SP5 may have reverted, but I don't know. Jan Dubois, I remember, weighed in on the topic, but I can't find the message. I also haven't seen anything on SP5, so I've skipped it... Jeff > > Hmmm.
