Perl and Access

I'm looking to use Perl to automate data entry to an Access database.
I have very little experience with Access, so I have no idea where to
begin. Could someone point me to a straightforward method for doing
so? I will be using Activestate's win32 version of perl for this.


Thanks

Hi,

Look into the DBD::ODBC module (Open DataBase Connectivity).
From memory, you set up an ODBC source pointing to an access database, then
use the above module to connect to it.

Regards,
Chris
