How do you see $dbh->quote_identifier($catalog, $schema, $table) being used with mysql, where it seems that $catalog.$table is what mysql expects. And "$catalog..$table" does not work. 2. ` is the quoting char (In non-ansi mode); however, `` is not the escaped quote, and '/', '\', and '.' can not be used in a quoted identifier. Should quote_identifier() thow an error if it gets data that it cannot quote? -- I think it should, but I just wanted to some feed back. Later, Rudy
