Go to the DBI users mailing list. Some go tos are good.
I forget the syntax but you can define the SQL type of
placeheld arguments; where possible, I'd avoid the need
to use that solution, instead changing my schema to use
more compatible types. My determinations on the issue are
a couple of years old, DBI and associated db drivers may
have evolved.
Be well, rir
