https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-linux/ms-access-and-perl-on-apache/m-p/2814821#M88798 Is there a way to connect to and use a(n) MS Access MBD file withour having to have to use ODBC? Basically connect like you do in ASP (using ms jet).

The CPAN doesn't show any that I can find either.

How locked are you to access?

So to answer your question, completely locked :( and unfortunately, we do not have and DSN sources available :( Fri, 27 Sep 2002 22:57:58 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-linux/ms-access-and-perl-on-apache/m-p/2814825#M88802 John Schultz_3 2002-09-27T22:57:58Z
