The info that you need is in a variety of places. Try
perldoc DBI
at the UNIX command line to get general DBI doc , or run pod2html
on the DBI source to get html versions of this. There is also a DBI
FAQ installed as part of the distrinbution.
perldoc DBD::Pg
will get you speciific Postgres DBD (driver) info.
Secondly, check out the DBI pages at
http://www.symbolstone.org/technology/perl/DBI/index.html
which will point you to various DBI-related resources (including
examples with cursors)
Hope this helps,
