in reply to AS/Perl 5.8.4.810 problems with Tk::DBI::Table on Win-XP

Are you using -w or -W on the command line? The former is the one that gives you info on what's going on. Not sure what the latter does.

Problems with DBI suggest adding the good old $dbh->trace(2,'path/to/log.file') in your code somewhere. At least if you can confirm that the SQL is not a problem you can look elsewhere for the problem. And don't forget to go back to $dbh->trace(0) when you're done.

    Thanks Alex!

    When I posted I had just discovered the problem. For some reason my Windows installation is not showing error dialogues when it should.

    So as part of the process I took a clean linux box and installed Perl and all the modules on there. Turns out that I made a typo in the original version, but it was not detected and everything worked ok! But in the later version of the module it causes and error. I could see the error dialog on the linux machine and solvede the problem.
