Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi,

 I am doing a migration of Oracle database to SQLSERVER 2005.Mostly my application code is perl scripts and i want to modify the scripts so as to connect to SQLSERVER.

What all would be the changes i have to make for just establishing a connection from Perl script to SQLSERVER 2005.(for eg:driver,dbd module,any other additional libraries etc..)

Can anyone provide me this kind information? Your help is appreciated

With Regards

Have a look at whatever-you-use-to-connect-now's documentation (e.g. dbi).

I looked into it.But still confused of the driver software and connectivity requisites.Thats why i asked for the complete information foe connecting to SQl Server 2005

you may have to use DBD::ODBC instead of DBD::Oracle
