Hi monks, I'm new to perl, need to write data to SQL Server, trying to install the DBD::ODBC module. Initially, I tried installing it via CPAN, had minor problem of environment variables not being set up, then I tried again after fixing the problem. Below is the message that I got. Can you guide me to a solution? I searched around to no avail. I'm using WinXP, thanks. 'nmake' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. MJEVANS/DBD-ODBC-1.15.tar.gz nmake -- NOT OK
