While I'm not 100% sure, I would seriously doubt it since Apache::DBI doesn't call the corresponding DBD's disconnect method. I would do one of the following: 1) Explicitly clean up your temp table. 2) See if you can stop using Apache::DBI. I found on several sites that Apache::DBI didn't effect performance as much as I would have imagined with PostgreSQL and was fine to run without it. --------------------------------- Frank Wiles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://frank.wiles.org ---------------------------------
