Readers: I'm running a query on a list (input file) and capturing the first column of the results to an array. When I print the array, the first element is null why is this ?? There are 5 items in my list, 6 rows of output.
My goal is to do more processing on @skulisting (which requires not having a null entry), not just to print the results. --------------------------------------------- ## Begin Code use strict ; use DBI ; my $item_number ; $dbh = DBI -> connect...... while (<INPUT>) { chomp $_ ; $item_number =$_ ; $sql_stmt =<<"EOF+" select sku_mark, description from inventory where item_number = $item_number EOF+ $sth = $dbh -> prepare ; $sth ->execute ; while (@row = $sth->fetchrow_array ) { ## Capture the sku mark push (@skulisting, $row[0] } foreach $entry (@skulisting) { ## Print the sku mark print $entry . "^^^^^^^^\n" ; } ================================= Results: ^^^^^^^^^^^^ ## Why is this line of output here?? 5134313234 3923392432 TIA Frank -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
