The API might work for Sybase, though I haven't really looked at it that closely. The main issue is of course that Sybase treats a stored procedure call (or RPC) exactly as any other database query and returns one or more result sets, so you'd have to fiddle around with the output to get at the data you want. Note that DBD::Sybase already allows direct RPCs to stored procedures via a normal prepare() call. Michael -- Michael Peppler Data Migrations, Inc.
