my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:Sybase:host=ddd.ddd.ddd.dd;port=ddddd;data +base=xxxxxx", "user", "password");

    I am directed (by CPAN) to install DBD::Sybase. CPAN says (after trying to install):
    Pleae set SYBASE in CONFIG or set the $SYBASE environment variable at +Makefile.PL line 120, <IN> line44

      Usually, $ENV{SYBASE} is set to the directory where your Sybase client libraries are installed. Maybe you can set $ENV{SYBASE} to that directory?

      didn't mention, working on Windows 7
