Thank you a lot.

I am not used to compiling packages, since i am used to use ActiveState Perl for Windows and am used to get ready to use ppm-packages, so please forgive me.

I did as described, but on doing the "perl Makefile.PL" it is telling me:

Press return to continue...  
Using DBI 1.631 (for perl 5.018001 on MSWin32-x64-multi-thread) instal
+led in C:/strawberry/perl/site/lib/auto/DBI/

What values should i set here (and what are they for)? It also gave me Warning (mostly harmless): No library found for ODBC32.LIB.
