I've used all three, Sybase::CTlib is certainly a fine library, but DBI is nowadays the standard Perl way to connect to databases so you will not have a new API to learn if you start using a different server or driver. (To connect to an MSSQL server I use DBD::Sybase on Linux and DBD::ODBC on Windows, but because DBI presents a uniform interface for both drivers, the same code can run on both platforms.) -- Ed Avis <[email protected]> ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.
