Re: ODBC for Win32 Perl anyone used? other options?

You can use DBI and either the Oracle or ODBC drivers (either of which will run on both NT and Linux). I prefer using these over the Win32::ODBC module so I can run my scripts on any platform.

You shouldn't have any problems with the levels of usage you are using.
