Aren't you supposed to call $test->finish(); before prepare()ing another query?

According to http://search.cpan.org/~timb/DBI-1.611/DBI.pm#finish: When all the data has been fetched from a SELECT statement, the driver should automatically call finish for you. So you should not normally need to call it explicitly except when you know that you've not fetched all the data from a statement handle. I know that there isn't any more data. FreeTDS seems to disagree though...	[reply]
