Re: Pg module for Perl

I think you are right!
I originally went to the Perl Module list on CPAN and looked for DBD and Pg.
It gave me the pgsql_perl5.1.9.0 link

However, when I searched for DBD Pg on Google, it led me to a DBD-Pg-1.22

I think that is what I was looking for. Will give it a try tonight.
Thanks!
