Greetings-

I'm hoping that someone else has run into this issue before. The trouble I am having is that I am getting the following error for my Update statement:

#42000You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '"UPDATE my_table SET MY_COLUMN = '' WHERE MY_OTHER_COLUMN = 'my_value'"' at line 1 at mysql_connect.pl line 24.

I have verified that the same statement executes successfully using the MySQL CLI, so I'm not sure what syntax Perl is finding objectionable...

My setup is as follows:

* I am running Perl(ActivePerl-5.10.0.1003-MSWin32-x86-285500) and the MySQL(5.0.51b) DB on Windows XP

* I am using the http://search.cpan.org/dist/Net-MySQL-0.09 module

And now the code (you will note the Select statement that comes prior to the Update statement, which is not throwing any errors):

my $mysql = Net::MySQL->new(
      hostname => 'localhost',
      database => 'my_DB',
      user     => 'root',
      password => 'my_password'
      );

$mysql->query(q{"SELECT * FROM my_table WHERE MY_OTHER_COLUMN LIKE 'my
+_value'"});
$mysql->query(q{"UPDATE my_table SET MY_COLUMN = '' WHERE MY_OTHER_COL
+UMN = 'my_value'"});

die $mysql->get_error_message if $mysql->is_error;

Thanks for any help you can provide, and please let me know if I have forgotten to include anything relevant.
