How much simpler can you get than this (requires only AnyData, not DBD::AnyData or any of the SQL* modules): use DBI; use AnyData; my $dbh = DBI->connect($mysql_or_other_dsn); my $sth = $dbh->prepare($query); for my $new_format(qw(CSV XML Ini Tab Pipe Fixed HTMLTable)) { adConvert( 'DBI', $sth, $new_format, "newfile.$new_format"); } __END__ -- Jeff
