  6. now you can test:
  	either: 'make test'
	or manually: 'perl -Iblib/lib t/02_access_data.t'


  
USING EXAMPLES:
---------------

To play around with the example warehouse you need a sample database:

  1. create the database on the server using SQL or commandline:
  	createdb warehouse
  2. modify example 'pawactl' to connect to this database. Edit the lines
     where these variables are set:
        $DBCONN
	$DBUSER
	$DBPWD
  3. run example 'perl -Iblib/lib examples/pawactl recreatedb' to install 
     the sample data in db
  4. play around with the example shell: 'perl -Iblib/lib examples/pawactl'
     NOTE: take a look at the comments in pawactl
  5. play around with the access sample: 'perl -Iblib/lib examples/access'
