Hi I want to retrieve a row of MySQL data using Perl and DBI, so I do it like this:
[code] my $sqlquery = qq|SELECT * FROM ata_members WHERE id=$id|; $sth = $dbh->prepare($sqlquery); $sth->execute or die("Can't execute SQL query. [$DBI::err] $DBI::errstr"); $ref = $sth->fetchrow_hashref(); $sth->finish; [/code] But what I want is to populate a %hash with all name/value pairs retruned from this query. I tried: [code] my %hash = %$ref; [/code] But that doesn't work. Anyone else got any ideas? Maybe there's a better way to retrieve the information from MySQL? -- Wiliam Stephens <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
