Hi everyone,
I'm trying to make first foray into DBI and since I currently don't have access to mySQL or SQL or Oracle or anything similar I need to make do with what I currently have on hand. I was wondering:

1. If it is possible to use DBI with AppleWorks (yes I use a Mac)?
2. If it IS possible... what driver should I specify or should I go the AnyDBM_file route?

I have searched CPAN (as well as Perl Monks) and the AppleWorks site and found no mention of drivers for AppleWorks at all or even what type it is. If anyone (esp. any other Mac fans/users - don't be ashamed, I know some of you must be) could point me in the right direction it would be a big help to this initiate.

TIA,
markmoon
