Thanks John. I'm using DBD::Oracle version 1.15 What you and Charles are saying is reasonable. I would have to upgrade DBI and DBD::Oracle and give it a shot, unfortunately, I was tasked to write this script so it would be portable on any machine that had the Oracle Client: 10.2.0.4 32 bit and I'm not permitted to install or use any other modules than what Oracle gave us with the client. What this means is that I have to take the guts out of my functions and stored procedures and write it in-line sql statements. But that's probably more information than you're interested in hearing about. Anyway, thanks for letting me know that it's the versions that are the problem and not me. When I'm done with the project I'll try this with the upgraded versions and let you know how it works out. Thanks for helping, I greatly appreciate all your opinions. Phil
