Hi, I am hoping some one can help me here...

I basically want to be able to output the contents of a mysql table: 

---------------------------------------------------------
|Name   | Address       | Tel         | Email            |
---------------------------------------------------------
| Bob   | 1 London Road | 00000000000 | bob@london.co.uk |
---------------------------------------------------------
| Tony  | 10 Downing St | 99999999999 | tony@no10.co.uk  |
---------------------------------------------------------

like this: 

Name: Bob
Address: 1 London Road
Tel: 00000000000
Email: bob@london.co.uk

Name: Tony
Address : 10 Downing St
Tel: 99999999999
Email: tony@no10.co.uk

Here's my current code: 

use DBI;

#    my $sql = "SELECT * FROM win32_processor";
    my $sql = "SHOW FIELDS FROM win32_processor";


    # Connect to the database.
    if (! saracen_open_database_connection 
            (    \$dbh,
                $program_config{saracen_database},
                $program_config{saracen_admin_login},
                $program_config{saracen_admin_pass}
            )
        )
    {
        # Indicate that a problem occured.
        return 0;
    }

    if (! saracen_execute_query(\$dbh, \$sth, $sql))
    {
        return 0;
    }

    #output database results
    while (@row = $sth->fetchrow_array)
    {     
        print "@row\n" 
    }

Im afraid my perl or mysql knowledge isn't extensive enough to solve this problem. I can get a table of fields, and I can get a table of values, I just cant seem to put them together!

Cheers, Marcel
