bind_param( ) is meant to bind VALUES only. So one cannot bind
database objects/schema names/ column names etc. Table names, column
names etc
should be mentioned in $sql. Place holders take only values.
. . . .
my $sql = "Select count(*) from $schema_name.$table_name where
$column_name = ?";
. .
You can't use a parameter for the table name. You have to use dynamic sql
(i.e. put it in the $sql var before the prepare). There's no point in the
prepare if the DB can't even figure out what table is going to be hit.
This should be a FAQ, but I didn't see it in there.

Are you logging on as the owner of the table? If not, you need to qualify
the table name.

Hi all,
Hoping someone can help me out here.
I'm trying to do the following using Oracle 9i and DBI:
$table_name = "USERS";
$sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ?";
$sth = $dbh->prepare($sql);
$sth->bind_param(1,$table_name);
$sth->execute;

However, I'm getting an error about an invalid table
