Hi there,

I am trying to perform an SQL query inside a usertag, and I am having
difficulty finding complete examples in the documentation.

Could somebody please post an example of a usertag that:

1. Selects a data from a single table
2. Outputs the result from the UserTag

I have started with the following code, but I can't figure out how to
access the query results and work out how many rows returned etc.

--------
my $sql = "select c_author from c_people";
my $result_array = $Tag->query( { wantarray => 1, sql => $sql,  }, $body
);
my ($same_results, $col_name_hash, $col_name_array) =
                      $Tag->query( { sql => $sql,  },
                                   $body );
my $result_hasharray = $Tag->query( { sql     => $sql,
                                         hashref => 'my_results',  },
                                       $body );
--------

Please be gentle, as I am not hardcore perl.... yet ;)


Cheers,

Andy
