Using a MS Access Database?

Does PERL supports MS Access database?

Why yes, yes it does. In fact, Perl supports many databases, including flatfile type db's.

You will want to have a read of the DBI module description on CPAN. DBI is the module that interfaces with all of the popular databases, simplifying your interaction with the DB you wish to use.

yes it supports... see the following code for reference...

Greetings crazy4perl,

Thank you for sharing your code to connect to a MS Access Database.

Please note that I've cleaned up your syntax and formatting some for you. Specifically, take note of the use of $dbh->errstr in the error conditions now. This is typically how one gets detailed information on a DBI error. Also, the line at the beginning should be "use strict;" and not "use STRICT;".

Kudos,
