A working example, for select and insert from/into in memory table 'users'. Put the XML from the DATA section in eadata.xml. 
# always:
use strict;
use warnings;

use DBI;

my $table  = 'users';
my $format = 'XML';
my $file   = 'eadata.xml';

my $dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:AnyData(RaiseError => 1):');

# insert a new record in to the memory table 'users'
$dbh->func( $table, $format, $file, 'ad_import');

# Select data from users

my $sql1 =  qq{ SELECT * FROM $table };

my $sth = $dbh->prepare($sql1);
$sth->execute();

while (my $row = $sth->fetchrow_hashref){
    print "Row:\n";
    while (my ($key, $value) = each (%{$row})) {
        print " $key: $value\n";
    }
}

# Insert a new record in to the memory table 'users'
my $sql2 = qq{
   INSERT INTO users (name, agency, email, org, mailstop, phone, title
+)
              VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)
};
$sth = $dbh->prepare($sql2);

# It's easy if we have the data in a hash
my $users = {
    name     => 'Testing',
    agency   => 'TT',
    email    => 'test@abc.com',
    org      => 'ABC',
    mailstop => 'X159',
    phone    => '(555) 123-4567',
    title    => 'Other',
};

# Transform hash into two arrays
my @fields = keys %{$users};
my @values = map { $users->{$_} } @fields;

# And use a generic insert statement
# code stolen from the IBPerl module examples ;)
$sql2 = "INSERT INTO $table (" . join( ',', @fields ) . ')
               VALUES (' . ( '?,' x $#fields ) . "?)";
# print "sql=", $sql2, "\n";

$sth->execute(@values);

print "\nLet's see the results:\n";

$sth = $dbh->prepare($sql1);

$sth->execute();

while (my $row = $sth->fetchrow_hashref){
    print "Row:\n";
    while (my ($key, $value) = each (%{$row})) {
        print " $key: $value\n";
    }
}
