Hi Mate, Thanks very much for your help. it is appreciated. As you can see I am a complete Perl beginner!!! I still have errors. When I ran the perl script with your changes I can get results back and it works great. However, when I put some form values in from the query string i.e http://localhost/cgi-bin/drive2.pl?Initiative=Initiative&ResOrientation=ResOrientation etc. What I don't understand is how to integrate these into the SQL statement based on what has been chosen. I get the 
error message <!-- warning: DBD::ODBC::st execute failed: [Microsoft][
+ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Too few parameters. Expected 1. (SQL­07
+001)(DBD: st_execute/SQLExecute err=­1)

Again many thanks.. Rachel.
