in reply to Database in Perl

Perl can very well connect to Database and some of big organizations i know, who does processing big files put tons of data every day in D/B. I'm not sure when you say we can compare it to other db tools (what are those db tools you are trying to compare). If your requirement is processing data and do DML operations then perl is quite good.

    with tools I mean, SQL or Access... since I am not way too familiar with them but I know they could produce databases adn ACCESS could also give interfaces as well as VB ...so if i could achieve the same using Perl from the scratch, building a database until generating and maintaining such reports from this database and all that

      Oh absolutely NO. Why to reinvent wheel if it's already there. I thought you are parsing files and inserting data into databases. Use third party tools. there are lot of them.
