So, the question you must ask yourself is: What changed yesterday? Or, if not yesterday, since the previous time when you successfully used the code. Something crucial changed. If it wasn't the Perl plus ODBC infrastructure, then what changed outside that? The DBMS? The networking? Change analysis is likely to get you to the answer quicker than anything else. -- Jonathan Leffler <jonathan.leff...@gmail.com> #include <disclaimer.h> Guardian of DBD::Informix - v2013.0521 - http://dbi.perl.org "Blessed are we who can laugh at ourselves, for we shall never cease to be amused."
