note davidrw are you _sure_ <c>@CHOICE_B[1 .. $elements_in_array_B]</c> is what you want? Seems like it should be just <c>@CHOICE_B</c> ...<br> <br> You can also simplify the whole thing (see [mod://DBI] docs) into one line: <code> my $rv = $dbh->do($Command_B, {}, @CHOICE_B) or die "Couldn't do query: ".$dbh->errstr; </code> 608251 608251
