Other than function 'mysql()' --MYM 'mysql_query()' ?
I can't tell from here, try using some error checking and basic debuging:
mysql_connect("$DBHost","$DBUser","$DBPass")
or die("Could not connect: " . mysql_error());
$qry="UPDATE items SET ItemSKU='$ItemSKU', ...<sniptherest>";
echo '<P>', $qry, '<P>';
$res = mysql_query($qry)
or die("Invalid query: " . mysql_error());
