I've just finished writing a Perl Module that simplifies the process of returning information about a SQL table. Currently, it can return information on column length, column members, column defaults, column type name, insert and update records. This module was written to minimize the number of connections to a database. The module connects once and gathers all information about a given table and stores the data. You can then use the module's various functions to return specific information about your table setup, without executing another SQL query. -- Wiliam Stephens <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
