What's the point of using 'prepare' if you're not using placeholders?

The point of prepare() is so as to be returned a statement handle that you can fetch() from; do() doesn't provide that. Maybe you should have a look at aforementioned documentation yourself. :-)

Makeshifts last the longest.

If you have a single record, what would you need a statement handle? Didn't you look at the sample data?

update: oops. I'm wrong. Nice looking out ichimunki Been using DBIx::DWIW lately, and was thinking something theoretically like $DBH->Hash("select * from blah where foo=bar"); Damn, and I was on such a roll. I wonder why Aristotle didn't call me on that, or even andrew. I'll chalk this up to being blinded screaming at the void (see what gryphon had to say at Re: Re: Re: Looping through MySQL)
