"You can only reliably bind values, not field or table names. Database that plan query execution won't accept this, because they need table and field names to make their query execution plans. Without knowing table and field names, how can the database construct a plan that calls for using indexes that might be available? (Answer: It can't.)" -- http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node_id=197667 HTH, Thomas PS: 1st hit while googling "dbi table name as bind variable" ;-) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
