I believe all you have to do is put the DBI.pm and ODBC.pm in your @INC variable somewhere and then you can call and use them as if they were already installed. So upload them to a direcotory somewhere on your new webhosting company and then add :
push(@inc, '/u/web/YOURHOSTINGDIRECTORY/WHEREYOUPUTTHE.PMFILES/'); to the head of your perl scripts. ------------------------ Brian -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, March 23, 2003 10:53 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Installing without root or shell access Varanasi wrote: > I have switched webhosts.
