I'm having some trouble passing some information from my Perl script to
the DBI query interface.

A short version of my query would look like:

  my $sth = $dbh -> prepare (q{
        SELECT message.name, contents, user.name, message.id
        FROM message, user
        WHERE folder='N' and parentid=?
        GROUP BY message.id
        ORDER BY time ?
        }) || die $dbh->errstr;

Then, I'm calling the query:

  $sth->execute($parent, "DESC");

The "DESC" is being ignored. I can hard-code it into the query and it
works fine. The closest I've been able to achive in having the query
recognize the second ? is to have it crash with an error reporing that
it's there, but doing nothing about it....

go figure.

any help is greatly appreciated.
