Re: Re: Re: How can I connect/access an MS access database from solaris?

I had thought LOAD was only available from the command line. I see that I was incorrect.
Thank you for the tip.

Actually ... the only "web" part of this, is that the MS Access database lives on a web server at a remote server farm. And I'm trying to insert a record from another IP through PERL CGI code. I was hoping to use something like: `dbi:DriverName:database=database_name;host=hostname;port=port` adapted as such: `dbi:ODBC:database=DSN_name;host=ip_address_of_IIS_box;port=dsn_port` I've loaded DBI and DBD::ODBC onto my Solaris box through CPAN. But DBD:ODBC wants an ODBC driver to point to. And I'm having a heck of a time finding a free ODBC driver for Solaris.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
