Thanks Courage

I assume that RTFSing is reading the f... Source. If that is true then I have to admit that is something I did not do. I got this back from the developer, confirming what you said: 

Good Morning John,


you need a first field with a unique content to adress a row for the c
+ommand
callback. Ok, here a little trick:


sub doDBItable {
    my $top = MainWindow->new;
    my $tkdbi = $top->DBITable (
            -sql => 'select CONCAT(name,pseudonym,age),* from user',
            -dbh => $dbh,
            -display_id => 0, # --- dont display the merged id!
            -debug => 1,)->pack(expand => 1, -fill => 'both');
}


I hope this helps.

I then modified my sql to include the 'id' which is a unique autoincremented value - it worked. It might be buggy, but heck, if I can use this module then it will really save my bacon on a Windows job I have in hand right now.

Thanks for your help, I will go and look at the source when this job is out of the way.

...john
