Totally new at perl I installed strawberry perl and tried to connect ot a database with an example script, but I got this: Can't locate Win32/ODBC.pm in @INC (@INC contains: C:/strawberry/perl/site/lib C:/strawberry/perl/vendor/lib C:/strawberry/perl/lib .) at db.pl line 13. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at db.pl line 13. Finding me very clever I search this ODBC.pm in my perl installation and found it under C:\strawberry\perl\vendor\lib\DBD and copied it to C:\strawberry\perl\vendor\lib\Win32. Then I got this: Can't locate object method "new" via package "Win32::ODBC" (perhaps you forgot to load "Win32::ODBC"?) at db.pl line 2. I googled some more and learned that I have to install the correct module for Win32 like this: perl -MCPAN -e shell install Win32::ODBC Since I am inside an intranet I have to use a proxy: Windows XP Open the Control Panel and click the System icon. The System Properties dialog is displayed....

Problem I want to delete the old WPS... ACLs from the old WebSphere Portal Server external authorization, which are not needed anymore. (Note: It was no problem to delete the object /WPS.) But I cannot modify/delete or even show the ACLs in pdadmin or WPM. In pdadmin I cannot see any ACL Entry on the object or on the ACL, but in a pdacld_dump I can see ACL entries for Groups and Users (Principals). I'm getting always: Could not perform the administration request Error: HPDAC1050E Operation is not authorized.

Task: I had a list with two date fields and I wanted to have the most recent dates first in the list. Solution: Create a calculated field (format=date): =IF([Date INT] Then I had a third field which I could use to sort.
