Mark,

I tried the configure.mpe script to run autoconf and I'm having a problem
with the version.

>pwd
/tar_files/DBD-ODBC-0.22/iodbcsrc/libiodbc-2.50.3
>touch *.c
>export ECHO=1
>./configure.mpe
Processing ./configure.in
FATAL ERROR: Autoconf version 2.13 or higher is required for this script
./configure.mpe 33: ./configure: not found
>
>autoconf --version
Autoconf version 2.12.1
>

Thanks for your help
