I have a better question for you. I make extensive use of the following Pg method, which returns the value of the given record and field number:
$sth->getvalue($rn,$fn) In particular, I use statements like $sth->getvalue($rn+$i,$fn-$j) where the the number of record/field are displaced by variables. As far as I can see DBI has a method to work one row at the time, in sequence. This is way too simple to handle the case above. I looked for a more powerful DBI method, but it does not seem to exist. Is it so? Does DBI have an equivalent to Pg' method "getvalue"? Bob ____________________________________________________________________________________ Expecting?
