I'm still learning here!) I just did, and it works. This brings up some questions, which I'm *REALLY* hoping that the experts here will educate me on. Is the require 'rubygems' ... the correct construct? Is it going to work in rails? Is there a way to get the gem loaded with a simple "require 'mysql'"? I'm really trying to learn this so I don't have to keep bugging the people here. I also want to thank all of you for the help you've given. I appreciate this community more than you know. ---Michael -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
