Can someone help me figure out what is the problem with this code? I can't figure out why it won't connect to a database. I've tried to use DBI::ODBC WIN32:OLE and WIN32::ODBC but it doesn't look like my hosting company supports any of them. Here's the code: 
use DBI;

$fn = $Form{'First Name'};
$ln = $Form{'Last Name'};
$ea = $Form{'Email Address'};
$pn = $Form{'Phone Number'};
$add = $Form{'Address'};
$dor = $Form{'Date Of Request'};
$ds = $Form{'submit date'};

$dbh = (DBI->connect ("DBI:ADO:File Name=$database"));



$sql = "INSERT INTO vip (First_Name,Last_Name,Email_Address,Phone_Numb
+er,Address,Date_Of_Request,Date_Submit) VALUES ('$fn','$ln','$ea','$p
+n','$add','$dor','$ds')";

$dbh->Execute($sql);
$dbh->Close();
