I've said it before, and I find myself saying
it again:
Sometimes DBD::ODBC isn't the right choice. Note that I
also caused Ovid to post a bit of a rant with that one as
well. I'm not advocating that you must use the "one true
solution" or anything. I'm just saying that if you have the
flexibility to use DBD::Sybase or DBD::FreeTDS (which I've
had connection issues with), then don't get locked down in
the ODBC solution. DBD::Sybase works extremely well with MS
SQL Server 6.5, btw.
ALL HAIL BRAK!!!

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.
