Has anyone ever produced anything like the following, and has got MS SQL 2000 to accept the requests that are submitted. Without error messages like: 
DBD::ODBC::db do failed: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Serve

The code:

+t is common to all computers and therefore is a perminant ip address
