If you are using mv3.11 then there is a bug where you can't address column
1 by name. Also in your example you have "se=Category" but you database
have the value "Bearing" in that field. You didn't give the [area] or
[page] tag you use, so I don't know if the problem is there.
This is a very basic feature. I use this all the time and it works fine. I
wouldn't resort to Perl unless you really have to because there is a big
overhead hit every time you call it.
