Hi, I did a cut and paste of your code into the program, and while it will now fall through, I still get this error. error submitting SQL statment 1 1 "-1305"
If your getting a message rather than -1305, then I still have a problem, probably with my setup. If your getting -1305 then I don't feel so bad, but still suspect I'm missing the error file, or still not accessing it properly.

I've not yet written the get data part, what's there is mostly from the win32::odbc fact, as I wanted to make sure I was accessing the file, before I got heavy into code, but thanks for the offer. I'll certainly come back if I get stuck. Thanks ever so much for taking your time to help out.
