Perl / mySQL Database

I don't know enough about mySQL to be sure of all this, but I think this is what I need: I am trying to get a database of orders that are submitted on-line. Currently all the order information (name, product code, etc.) comes into a Perl script that I use to generate an email to myself when there is a new order. I would like to use this same Perl script to enter all the order information into a database, so that I can access it in bulk later instead of dealing with individual emails. My web hosting company is Insiderhosting.com. They have Linux servers, and they support Perl and mySQL databases. So what I would like is an SQL database that contains the order information, as well as a simple way to access this information. The web hosting control panel has an administration system called phpMyAdmin which administers the SQL databases, and this may be sufficient for administration if I can figure out what it is that I need to do with it. Or maybe it will be necessary to have an application of some kind that allows me to view the database and extract information from it. That is the part I don't know about. So what I need is the following: - Perl code that will go into my existing Perl script to get the order information and put it into an SQL database. - Instructions on how to use the phpMyAdmin interface, or an application to allow me to view the database and extract information. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law.
