Are you logging on as the owner of the table? If not, you need to qualify the table name.

I'm trying to do the following using Oracle 9i and DBI: $table_name = "USERS"; $sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ?"; $sth = $dbh->prepare($sql); $sth->bind_param(1,$table_name); $sth->execute; . . . However, I'm getting an error about an invalid table name (I have verified that the table is valid and that I spelled it correctly). Is this even possible with Oracle and DBI? Please let me know. Thanks. Aaron Salvo
