You are quite correct and it is a major weakness of mine, I generally manually run a query until I know it will work fine then put it in perl knowing it works fine. On this occassion I decided to implement the error checking by raising errors through the mailing list, this seemed to work very well:-) Seriously I will get the script to raise the errors and stop the clogging up of the mail list. But thankyou to you all. -- Work:- postmasterAThinwick.demon.co.uk WEB:- http://www.hinwick.demon.co.uk Work:- mworsdallATshaftesburysoc.org.uk REPLACE AT with @ Home:- hinwickATworsdall.demon.co.uk WEB:- http://www.worsdall.demon.co.uk Shadow:- webmasterATshadow.org.uk WEB:- http://www.shadow.org.uk --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
