<p>Surely this is only a problem if you use
<tt>select * from tab1</tt> and I can't believe that
anyone would be stupid enough to do that in production
code.</p>
<p>For exactly the reason that you discuss, you should
<b>always</b> use <tt>select col1, col2 from tab1</tt></p>
<p>The problem is not with Perl or DBI, but with your
usage of SQL.</p>
