Larry,
Including a snip or two of code helps.
An example of a connection:
If using sqlplus you do: sqlplus scott/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
then for dbi you do:
my $dbh = DBI->connect( q{dbi:Oracle:db}, q{scott}, q{tiger},
{RaiseError => 1} ) or die "Unable to connect $DBI::errstr\n";
perldoc DBI and/or perldoc DBD::Oracle for more information.
Hope this Helps,
Tom
