Hi, Stipe,

Many thanks for this info, I think I'l insert the link to your site
somewhere
on Qub.com. Unfortunately, after playing with Cygwin for more than 1 year,
I now decided that it is not worth the efforts to continue with it.
Apparently,
I also found that mySQL is much better than mSQL.

Rgds.Paul.

I have build Yep-Perl extension that passes 90% of mSQL-2 tests, but when investigating failures in detail, I found that port of mSQL 2.0 daemon that I'm using has many trivial drawbacks. So I decide to wait when Hughes would ship promised 'official' mSQL 2.0 Win32 port. (Promised in 2 weeks)

If you don't want to wait with me - provide me with any url to mSQL 2* for Win32 that supports trivial script below - and I'l be glad to provide perl support for that mSQL 2* Win32 distribution. Unfortunately, at the moment I have no time to port mSQL 2* itself.
