my $self = shift;
In the next line I want to go through each item in $self->tsids which is declared as $self->{tsids} = []; thus the line This line my $name = new profile($var); is to create a new object for each value in $self->tsids I already have a DBI handle my $connection = $self->connection; Then I prepare my statement using a placeholder my $sth = $connection->connection->prepare( "SELECT Last_Name = LastName, First_Name = FirstName, Middle_Name = MidName, Job_Title = JobTitle, Birthdate = Birthdate FROM table WHERE database_wide_key = ?" ); This is probably the offending line my @names = ($var); This is the line where it diesmy $rc = $sth->execute(@names) or die "I'm sorry Dave, I can't do that"; I initially got an error message that the database MS TSQL 6.5 could not implicity convert a VARCHAR to an INT which made me think that Perl was interpolating $var into a "string". When I use the CONVERT statement, Convert(int, varchar) ?, it tells me that it cannot convert VARCHAR ARRAY(XXXXXXX) into a INT which leads me to believe that I am incorrectly dereferencing the array.This is where I am stuck. The rest of the code is meant to populate the properties of the object created by the foreach loop.
