I also wanted to query an Access Database from an OpenVMS system. I was able to do this using DBD::Proxy with a couple of days of low priority effort. > What module(s) do I need to load into Perl? On the same machine as the database or on a machine that can access the database via a network share you need... DBI RPC-PlRPC Net-Daemon After installing these modules, run the dbiproxy daemon with arguments appropriate for your setup. On the OpenVMS system I had to install... Time-HiRes DBI RPC-PlRPC Storage Net-Daemon at which point everything worked beautifully. I have only one issue to resolve. Passing stderr=1 to DBI::connect() did not work for me. I am using logfile=/nla0 as a work-around until I can investigate further.
