in reply to Weird problem with Oracle, DBI, and Scientific Notation

I don't know if you would want to do this but ....
you can alway do an end run on DBI with Oracle
by doing something like this ...
my $cmd="sqlplus scott/tiger\@whatever"; open SQLPLUS, "|$cmd" or die "Ah poo!:$!\n"; print SQLPLUS<<DOIT; select to_char(large_number,'999999999999') from mytable; DOIT close SQLPLUS;
... might want to save this as a last resort.
