Connect to a Paradox database through a DBD::ODBC driver

The script will show you how to create an ODBC connection to a Paradox database, install the DBD::ODBC Perl module and how to use some queries for interrogating a Paradox table in connection with DBI Perl module (a database-independent interface) and the specific DBD driver. Previously you must install BDE (Borland Database Engine) on your computer. Using DBI and DBD you can connect to any kind of database you have in view (not only Paradox).
