Where does Oracle hid perl in 11g (Windows version)? My company has
strict rule about what we can install on servers, so downloading a copy
from the internet is not a preferred option.

In my completely biased opinion: Perl.
* Its' everywhere.
* It can do anything.
* It's fast.
* There are lots of people out there who can help you.
* That thing you need to do: someone's probably already done it
for you (probably Jared).
* It's a great language that doesn't stand in the way of clear
thinking.
* It's a living language that keeps improving with every release.

Perl?
I'm not a guru myself, in fact,. I hardly understand it! Jarred
(Apologies if I've spelt your name wrong!) on this list is a guru and
uses Perl quite extensively for Oracle duties I believe.
I even think that an Oracle install installs Perl <somewhere? beneath
ORACLE_HOME. Even on Windows?
I use ActivePerl on Windows when I have to run scripts in that language.
Cheers,
Norman.
