If you installed win32 perl from activestate then the activestate package
manager is the easiest way to do this. More information about ppm is
available here
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Downloads/ActivePerl/PPM/

You can run it thus:
Start->Run->"ppm"

typing help will give you a list of options for searching for packages etc..

install DBI
(you may have to select which package to use, use the latest version which
is there)

install DBD-MySQL

and that should do it.

Subject: Request For Help - Perl DBI & DBD::mysql

Hello. I am an adjunct professor at the New York Institute of Technology.
I am developing an undergraduate computer science course in Database
Interfaces & Programming and would like to use Perl DBI & DBD::mysql in a
Windows environment. I currently use MySQL in my introductory Database
courses. Do you know where I can find pre-built packages (for Windows) of
Perl DBI and DBD::mysql?

Thanks for your help.

Vinayak Javaly
