Grant,

Ron's advice above is for a global usertag; if you want to use a catalog 
usertag, use this to get the $dbh instead:

my $dbh = $Sql{orderline} or die "Couldn't get orderline handle\n";

And in the page that calls the usertag you'll need to pre-open the 
database handle with something like:

[perl tables="orderline"][/perl]

before you call the tag.

HTH,
Jon
