Hi, I am using the WIN32::OLE method to connect to a MS SQL database using perl and wanted to add some exceptional handling to my script especially when stored procedures fail to run. Currently I use a connection- my $Conn = Win32::OLE->new("ADODB.Connection");

Recordset(GetDataRS)- 

$RS   = Win32::OLE->new("ADODB.Recordset");
$RS->Open($sql, $Conn, 1, 1);
return $RS

Running a query without a recordset(RunDBCmd) 
$RS   = Win32::OLE->new("ADODB.Recordset");
$RS->Open($sql, $Conn, 1, 1);

How can I expect errors when I execute bad commands like - $SQLStr = "TRUNCATEsasdsa TABLE $database.dbo.$Tblname"; or $SQLStr = "EXEC <Storedprocedure with errors in it> "; thank you. -Ron
