One thing I use for a sanity check is a printout of the SQL command that I'm trying to execute. If I can run the SQL from a command prompt and it returns what I expect, then I look for trouble elsewhere.

Check your return statuses for all calls to DBI, and try to narrow down exactly where your script is having trouble. The best way for us to help you is for you to post the smallest possible code fragment that's giving you trouble.

Und entlich, viel Gluck!

ps Actually, DBI is quite useful. Really. :)
