I'm getting the following error when I use your DBD::AnyData module: 
Wide character in print at 
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0/sun4-solaris/IO/Handle.pm
        line 439 (#1)
    (W utf8) Perl met a wide character (>255) when it wasn't expecting
    one. 

That's not an error, it's a warning - meaning that it's purely advisory 
and doesn't necessarily impact the script.  It's a warning from Perl, 
not from DBI or the DBD.

This warning is by default on for I/O (like print) but can be
    turned off by no warnings 'utf8';
In other words, put this at the top of your script to eliminate the 
display of the warning:

   no warnings utf8;

AFAIK, DBD::AnyData doesn't care whether or not the information is in utf8.

Below is the code I'm executing: 

$ad_dbh->func(
            'lead_detail',
            'DBI',
            $orac_dbh,
            {sql=>$sql},
            'ad_import'); 

$ad_dbh->func(
            'lead_detail',
            'CSV',
            '/tmp/CustomLeadService_filtered_leads.csv',
            'ad_export'); 

The $orac_dbh is an oracle DBI handle. This module works great, but it 
looks like I need to somehow prepare a handle for an extra wide 
character. Would you know where in your code to start looking?

I think the "no warnings" statement should fix it, but do let me know if 
I'm wrong.  I'm cc'ing the [EMAIL PROTECTED] listserv in case someone 
with Unicode tuits has something to add.
