I have been flogging this for 3 hours, I know it is not entirely on topic but will someone please tell me why the code below gets error:

DBD::mysql::st execute failed: You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'month = '3' day = '16' time_start = '12:00 PM' time_end = '01:00 ' at line 4 at db.pl line 653.

I have checked and rechecked Cheetah and Kingfisher manuals and read the pod and checked the data in the arrays, combined the arrays, ditched the arrays and used bind_params just to see the one to one correspondance, added commas between the SET params, and googled my brains out. Help.
TIA

$sth = $dbh->    prepare("UPDATE $calendar_table
                SET
                 year = ?
                 month = ?
                 day = ?
                 time_start = ?
                 time_end = ?
                 title = ?

                 e_time = ?

                WHERE year = ?
                AND month = ?
                AND day = ?
                AND time_start = ?
