I suggest you join the Perl DBI list:

http://lists.perl.org/showlist.cgi?name=dbi-users

Perl::DBI works a little differently, it returns undef
when the last row is retrieved.

Here's a snippet:

while ( @array = $sth->fetchrow ) {
        print q{'} . join(q{','}, @array) . q{'} . "\n";
}

When $sth->fetchrow returns undef, the loop is complete.

BTW, the above one liner dumps a table to CSV format.
