Why don't you just show the code you are using? If you do that, I bet a lot of people will try to help you to figure that out. If you don't help people to understand your problem and give them any resources for doing that, then you are lost. As I said before on CB, try to help the others to help you. You will learn more, the others will be satisfied to help you. Try to fix your position while people are still complaining about you, be worried when people just start to ignore you.

Going back to your problem, your code is executed from a Linux box or a Windows box? I understand that you're trying to reach a SQL Server 2000, but what about the client? Another point, the DSN is usually the first argument for DBI::connect(). For exemple, when using a SQLite database, your DSN will probably looks like dbi:SQLite:dbname=my.db. The DBD driver you'll be using will be the thing between the :.

Now, what are you using as DSN to connect the database and what is the operational system where the script is running?

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
