In the following code, the statement, "print FH $data{name};" does not print anything. I do have a column in my table named 'name'. This has to be a simple error. I should add that I have printed out the generated SQL statement and it works fine. I should be able to assume that my session was successful with RaiseError set to one correct?

############################################################
sub getInfo
############################################################
{
my $dbtable = shift;
my $function = shift;
my $where = shift;

my ($dbh, $sth, @datetime, @date, $name, %data);
my $i=0;

$dbh=DBI->connect('DBI:ODBC:Servers', { RaiseError => 1, AutoCommit =>
+ 0 });
       
my $sth = $dbh->prepare( "$function FROM $dbtable $where" );
$sth->execute;
$sth->bind_columns( \( @data{ @{$sth->{NAME_lc} } } ));  
$sth->{'ChopBlanks'} =1;    

@datetime = split(' ', $data{submit_date});
@date = split(/-/,$datetime[0]);
my $userid = $data{name};
my $username = findADname($userid);
  
open(FH, "> SQLoutput.txt")or die("Couldn't open SQLoutput.dat\n");
     print FH $data{name};
     print FH "Hello";
close FH;

$sth->finish();
$dbh->disconnect();          #----Needed to free up system resources.
