Hi ladies and gentlemen
Can you help me to scape a reserved double quoted column name from an Ingres database, please?
The difference is the column name open is between double quotes, probably because it is a reserved word in the Ingres database. The SQL query works fine using double quotes or not, in the SQL terminal.
The Perl code below works great:
my $sql = "SELECT DISTINCT id FROM mytable WHERE active = ?";
my $ref = $dbh->selectall_arrayref($sql,undef,'yes');
@id = map{ $_->[0] } @$ref;
die join (", ", @id), "\n";
But, the Perl code below returns the error: "Argument "true" isn't numeric in subroutine entry at ./new.pl line 104."
my $sql = "SELECT DISTINCT id FROM mytable WHERE open = ?";
my $ref = $dbh->selectall_arrayref($sql,undef,'true');
@id = map{ $_->[0] } @$ref;
die join (", ", @id), "\n";
So, I have escaped the quotes using the below chars without success:
'open'
'\open\'
"open"
"\open\"
'\"open\"'
\"'open'\"
'"open"'
"'open'"
\'\"open\"\'
\"\'open\'\"
Also, it has been combined with q// and qq//

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
