Hello,

After my hosting company installed GDBM for me, I found that this
problem 
doesn't depend on database type. :) 

After day of debugging I found that SQL::Statement.pm (Statement.xs)
doesn't 
behave as documented on FreeBSD system.

If no WHERE clause is used it doesn't return undef but number.

I'm unfamiliar with xs, so here is my fix:

--- /usr/local/interchange/lib/Vend/Scan.pm     Sat Dec  2 19:49:10 2000
+++ lib/Vend/Scan.pm    Fri Mar  2 13:28:23 2001

        my @where;
        my $numeric;
        @where = $stmt->where();
-       if(defined $where[0]) {
+       #if(defined $where[0]) {
+       if(CORE::ref $where[0]) {
          my $or;
          push_spec('co', 'yes', $ary, $hash);
          do {


Thank you for your patience.
