I have been successful with DBD::Oracle and Oracle 7.3.4 under VMS 7.1
and Perl 5.6. The only real gotcha is that the wrong linker .COM file
is used by default with DBD::Oracle. You need to use LNOCIC instead of
LNPROC in order to get the module to compile (line 413 of DESCRIP.MMS).
Other than that, it works like a charm; I am connecting to 8.0.x and
8.1.x servers without a hitch.
Good luck
