==================================================

The error which i am getting when i run the above program is 

C:\ram>perl timeinblt.pl
Can't locate object method "connect" via package "DBI" (perhaps you fo
+rgot to load "DBI"?) at timeinblt.pl line 14.
C:\ram>

the line no. 14 is

$dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:mysql:$db","$db_user", "$db_password",{RaiseError => 0, PrintError => 0} ) or err_trap("Cannot connect to the database");
