Make sure your original $query is delimited by double quotes, not single. if you do $sth->prepare(‘select column from table where column = ?’); you’ll get that error. That’s the only way the ? would get past DBI, I’d think, which is what your oracle error seems to be indicating. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs
