A
do block just executes the contained code and returns the last thing that was evaluated. In this context, I use it to create a tight scope for the

my $count = @$columns;
my $qs = join ',', ('?') x $count;
my $sql = <<EOSQL;
INSERT INTO VoucherMRPDataTable_Frt_TariffModel
VALUES ($qs)
EOSQL
except that in the latter case, you'll be carrying around two more variables, one of which has a very generic name.
