i have a code it is written like this

#!/usr/bin/perl

$first = $field{'first'};
$last = $field{'last'};
$address = $field{'address'};
$email = $field{'email'};
$phone = $field{'phone'};
$user = $field{'user'};
$pass = $field{'pass'};

use DBI;
$dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:ODBC:'driver = Driver do Microsoft Access(*.m
+db);
dbq=test.mdb'");

print"<html><body><h1>this is a test</h1>";
$sql = qq{INSERT INTO Dreamcpu(FirstName, LastName, Address, Email, Ph
+one, Username, Password) VALUES ('$first', '$last', '$adress', '$emai
+l','$phone', '$user', '$pass');};

$rc = $dbh->do($sql);

print"$rc record(s) were added.<p>";

$sth = $dbh->prepare("SELECT ID,FirstName,LastName,Address,Email,Phone
+,Username,Password FROM Dreamcpu");
$sth->executive();


print"<table>\n";
print"<tr> <th>ID</th> <th>First</th> <th>Last</th> <th>Address</th> <
+th>Email</th> <th>Phone</th> <th>User</th> <th>Password</th>\n";
while (@row = $sth->fetchrow_array)
{
 print"<tr>";
 foreach(@row)
 {
  print"<td>$_</td>";
 }
 print"</tr>\n";
}
print"</table>\n";
print"</body></html>";

$sth->finish;
$dbh->disconnect;

when i goto the webpage i get the following error

CGI Error
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete s
+et of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:

Can't locate object method "connect" via package "DBI" (perhaps you fo
+rgot to load "DBI"?) at C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\cgi-bin\database1.pl line 
+12.

any ideas

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.


good chemistry is complicated, and a little bit messy -LW
