Hi,
  I'm trying to access a Microsoft Access 2000 Database, with multiple
fields.

  Unfortunately I'm a newbie on all fronts here (Perl, Access, ODBC, dbi).

  I've created a system DSN to access the database file, and have created a
perl script or two to access both the complex and also a simple database,
but I'm lost without a map.

  I've been reading some of the posts here, and have seen it mentioned that
DBI is better than ODBC.  Can someone point me in the right direction (faq
or otherwise) so that I might find my way into modifying databases via perl.

  (NB : the database I want to edit is the output mdb file from a now
non-working SQL server.  I've edited the file before via Access 2000 and it
was not easy.. looking for an easier way to edit the fields)

  Many thanks in advance,

DerekB
