Sure is and you've already got that: while (@temp = $table->fetchrow_array ()) { print "$temp[0] $temp[1] $temp[2] $temp[4]"; # or whatever } Outside of the while loop you'll only have one version of @temp if any, so if you need to use $temp[n] outside the while loop you'll need to assignthe values to an outside variable Perhaps a hash. If there's only going to be one record returned you can just do: my @temp = $table->fetchrow_array($query); And skip the prepare and execute stuff. Then you could use $temp[n] wherever your @temp was declared > > So is it possable to do this and if so how or where can I > find the info. > perldoc DBI HTH DMuey -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
