Paul,

Sorry about the lack of photo's. :)

There's already some errata. sigh...

It's not on the web site yet, so here's what I've submitted:

Jared

Errata:

Add MainLoop() to step 5 of Example 3-1 on page 70

Example 3-2 on Page 71:
  change "my oracleTime;'" to "my $oracleTime;"

Example 4-1 on Page 116:

It may be necessary to specify the ORACLE_HOME value in your environment.

You may need to change add the following line:

  $ENV{ORACLE_HOME} = '/u02/app/oracle/product/8.1.7';

The actual value needs to be the ORACLE_HOME for your environment.

Add this line just above this line:   

   my $dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:Oracle:orcl','system','manager',      { RaiseError=>1} );
