in thread DBI for SQL Server issue - can't locate object method "set_sql" via package "Class::DBI::MSSQL

Hi Chris,

Than you for your help.

It looks like I need a number of other dependencies, such as Class-DBI-0.95.

Is there a quicker way to install all of these?

    Greetings, newbieperlperson.

    Indeed there is. But while I could answer your question. I'm going to let someone more familiar with a MinGW install, on a Winboxen. It's been about 12yrs. since I've done that, and while I could get you through it. I'd not do you nearly the service that someone here with more recent experience could.

    Best wishes.

    #!/usr/bin/perl -Tw
    use Perl::Always or die;
    my $perl_version = (5.12.5);
    print $perl_version;
      No worries and thank you for your help. i finally figured out how to get the package installed, I had to use nmake for windows. However, the same issue still persists. install_driver(mssql) failed: Can't locate object method "set_sql" via package "Class::DBI::MSSQL"
        This is one of the more frustrating parts of loving Perl.

        For those of you who do this all the time, it seems like second nature to install modules.

        For the rest of us, this is a nightmare.

        I am watching this thread eagerly in hopes that another bright light can be added to this otherwise dark and dismal underground passage.
