There aren't DBD drivers for any of the common Macintosh desktop databases such as AppleWorks or Filemaker Pro, however if you need to access data in AppleWorks, you can use Mac::Glue. Mac::Glue is a perlish interface to Apple Events. I used Mac::Glue in conjunction with DBD::Proxy and DBI::ProxyServer to move some data from Filemaker to MySQL a few years back for one of my professors. I was pretty happy with the results.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
