All, I am trying to pass an array of attributes to a sql statement. The array contains a list of comma delimited sql case statements that I want to append to the attributes in the sql statement. My sample data has two case statements to test the process. Of course, I can add one element of the array and it works. How do I add the entire array as on continuous comma delimited string? 

# Create Array_ref with list of case statements for array.
my $case = $case_query1->fetchall_arrayref();

#I get two case statements.
foreach $r (@{$case})
{
@case2 = join(", ", @{$r});
print "@case2"; 
}

# Count number of rows selected
my $num = $case_query1->rows;

#I get two case statements.
print "\n\nThis process returns $num of case statements.\n"; 

#I get one case statements.
print "@case2"; 

# Set up Query for Creating case data
my $case_stmt3 = "create table case_st_data1 as                     (S
+ELECT
                     rd,
                     store_number
                     @case2
                  FROM
                    test_ptw_bottom_10
                  where
                    week_end_date in ('19-SEP-09','26-sep-09')
                  group by
                     rd,
                     store_number)";

Can someone help me with the array logic to pass the entire array as a comma delimited string? Note: I only added the parts of the code that are relivent. If you have questions let me know. Thanks...
