It's been a while since I've had to play with SQL*Plus (thank Baud) but I seem to recall that @ is used to execute SP scripts.

A short snippet of code would help clear up the matter. Are you modelling your work on the examples shown in DBD::Oracle? Does the errstr method provide any clues? Are you using a single-quoted or double-quoted string for the SQL? If the latter, you could be running into interpolation problems (it would treat @foo as the name of an array), so the SQL Oracle sees is not what you think it is. Running at higher trace levels will show you what Oracle receives.
