Hi all,

Trying to install DBI.pm using ppm on a windows NT box, running ActiveState
Perl 5.006001.
Here's the cmd output:

PPM> install dbi.pm
Install package 'dbi.pm?' (y/N): y
Installing package 'dbi.pm'...
Error installing package 'dbi.pm': Could not locate a PPD file for package
dbi.pm
PPM> version
2.2.0

I grabbed the latest version of DBI.pm from CPAN.

Can someone point me in the direction to where I can find "a PPD file for
package dbi.pm"? More specifically...what PPD file??

Thanks in advance!

Gary
