UPDATE
Works fine so far.
Now I am in the process of building a CGI program to insert, update and delete from the database.
here are the problems That I face.
  1. The db is as decribed.There is a auto number column in the table that acts as the primary key.
  2. I am trying to insert just the values for sys, report and job for the table from user input.
  3. I am using the following statement to insert. INSERT INTO LOOKUP (SYS_ACC,REPORT_NAME,JOB_NAME) VALUES \'$sys\',\rpt\',\'$job\'
  4. my $sqlstatement="insert into lookup (Sys_Acc) values \'$sys_acc\' ";
print "<br> $sqlstatement";

$sth = $dbh->prepare($sqlstatement) or die "$DBI::errstr";
$sth->execute();
 
$dbh->commit();
$dbh->disconnect() or warn "Disconnection Failed \t : $DBI::errstr \n"
+;
