I have just got my first job within a software company that subcontracts me out for perl programming...I am kind of stuck on a project I am going to be on. This client has an existing Document Mgmn System and It has grown to be huge. What my job will be is to make a front end that will be more navigatable threw, since now it starts with 2 Folders on the server and then there are 4 under them each, then there is folders which are created by the DCMS users with numbers to signify diffrent proposals, then under each one of them are 6 more folders, with another folder under each one of them. The existing scripts they are using on thier nt is working great, there is no need for me to write any script for the core part just my homepage and to make it more formatted...needless to say...this is a huge task for me since, i use linux and this is what i use for development, they on the other hand use nt with iplanet and active perl, their existing DCMS is powered by an oracle backend, which i do not have to mess with Just the front end in perl? My question is what is the best way to approach this, as this is my first real job putting my skills to use, and I have never done any perl on win32 systems, just linux...anyway..please help..and if you need more info il write back for sure...thanks guys...a
