That is not a MySQL problem and has nothing to do with your database. It's a Perl error indicating that your program won't compile because it is syntactically invalid. Fix your Perl syntax and try again. If you're still having trouble with Perl, ask on a Perl-related list, like one of these: http://lists.perl.org/showlist.cgi?name=beginners http://lists.perl.org/showlist.cgi?name=beginners-cgi Note that you can't have unescaped double quotes in the middle of a double-quoted string. Escape them with backslashes, change them to single quotes (which are more normal SQL anyway), or use some other method to include variables in your SQL (such as printf or DBI placeholders). -- Keith C.
