As I explained to you in response to your last posting, that syntax is MySQL-specific. One way to go from Xbase (or any DBI accessible RDBMS) to CSV is to use DBD::AnyData DBD::CSV like this:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use DBI;
my $dbhX = DBI->connect('dbi:XBase(RaiseError=1):');
my $dbhC = DBI->connect('dbi:CSV(RaiseError=1):');
my $select = $dbhX->prepare("SELECT * FROM inTable");
$select->execute();
$dbhC->do("CREATE TABLE outTable AS IMPORT(?)",{},$select);
__END__
Update : replaced my bad code with a working example.
my $dbhX = DBI->connect ( Xbase connection info);
my $dbhA = DBI->connect( 'dbi:AnyData:' );
$dbhA->ad_catalog('outfile','CSV',$output_filename);
my $sth = $dbhX->prepare( Select SQL );
$sth->execute();
$dbhA->do("CREATE TABLE outfile AS SELECT * FROM ?",{}, $sth);

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
