Hi Monks, In my perl script when I am executing below sql by connection to SQL Server through Win32::ODBC I am getting error : SQL failed. Error: 102 1 [0] "MicrosoftODBC SQL Server DriverSQL ServerIncorrect s yntax near ','." whereas when I execute it in SQL Server Management Studio it runs fine. I think it is coz of declare statement . I have a limitation that I cannot put this code in stored proc. Is there any way I can get away with this error ? 
use Win32::ODBC;
use Win32::OLE;
$DSN = "dsn=CRRLIVE;uid=$UserID;pwd=$Password";

if (!($db = new Win32::ODBC($DSN))){
    print "Error connecting to $DSN\n";
    print "Error: " . Win32::ODBC::Error() . "\n";
    exit;
}
$SqlStatement = <<ENDSQL;
declare @RepDate datetime    
select @RepDate = max(Date) from CRRWarehouse..AERReportDate where Dat
+e >= '1 jan 2008' and [User] like '%SYS%'    

declare    
    @CntCurrentDealSize           int,
    @CntCurrentStatic             int,
    @CntCurrentTrade              int,
    @CntErrorTrade                int,
    @CntFirstLegalEntity          int,
    @CntGroupReport               int,
    @CntImportBedrockData         int,
