Hi, I`m a complete newbie when it comes to MySQL and Perl.
I`m confident with Perl and flat file databases and have some knowledge of ASP and building MSAccess database powered sites.
My question is.. how difficult is it to take a Perl programme (for example, dbman, yeah I know its been done, its just an example) that uses flat file database and convert it to using a MySQL database?
What are the differences, is it just an opening and reading-writing thing using connections and queries or is there a lot more to it?
thanks
chmod
