Hi, I want to start learning Class::DBI and put the default DBI aside for a while. I created this method that does a simple select, I want to learn how to do it the Class::DBI way. Here's my method doing it the old fashion way. 
sub test
{
# DATA SOURCE NAME
my $dsn = "dbi:mysql:$dbname:localhost:3306";

# PERL DBI CONNECT
my $connect = DBI->connect($dsn, $user, $pw);

my $query = "SELECT username, password, created FROM TempAccountRegist
+ry";
my $query_handle = $connect->prepare($query);

# EXECUTE THE QUERY
$query_handle->execute();

# BIND TABLE COLUMNS TO VARIABLES
$query_handle->bind_columns(\$username, \$password, \$created);

# LOOP THROUGH RESULTS
while($query_handle->fetch()) {
print DB "$username, $password, $created\n";
 }

}

I have another file with Class::DBI 
use base 'Class::DBI';

DataStore::DAO::Base->connection("dbi:$source:$dbname", $user, $passwo
+rd);

# I would like to add the method doing it the Class::DbI 
# way here.

Where I work, they strive on Class:DBI, so I'm eager to learn it. Thanks for your help. usaims
