Hi there

Consider taking off the semicolon from the end of your query. DBI doesn't need (or allow?) the semicolon, since it can only do one query per prepare. You will probably have better luck without the semicolon (I have never tried a query in DBI with a semicolon, so I don't know if this is expressly forbidden or not).

And as was mentioned before, a space between color and varchar(60)...

Also, try checking $DBI::errstr after you do the execute(), you will probably find something resembling a syntax error concerning colorvarchar(60) or an unknown column type MyISAM; (notice semicolon)..

good luck!
