Bill, I find the cannot open the file '(unknown)' very odd. This sounds like
permissions to me. Have you tried:
1. A DSN-less connection:
$dbq = 'C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Office\\Office\\Samples\\Northwind.mdb';
$dsn = "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=$dbq;";
$db = new Win32::ODBC($dsn)
2. Running the script as another user: Try changing the NTFS permissions for
the script so that the user must log in. The script will be run as that user
(try an administrator account). If it works now then you know there is a
problem with permission.
3. You didn't mention the DSN configuration. It doesn't use a UNC path name
does it?
