Hi Seeing as no-one else has replied to this, I'll make a comment. First off let me state I don't use PDO so I am not familiar with it. It would appear to me that your "problem" line is NOT the problem. It is only where the error is reported from. That line is a call to an object method, so the problem is in that method. As you haven't supplied the code for that method, no one is able to help. > A point of note is that my $dbh is being created in my class constructor > as a private. The method that is calling the prepare and execute > statements is a public.

Probably not relevant, although it likely would be better to assign by reference. $prep_users =& $this->dbh->prepare($sql_users); The main problem is we don't know what your $dbh is. We can guess it's a database handle, but that really doesn't tell us anything useful, like how it is constructed, and what the method you try calling is trying to do We need to see the code for the method: $prep_users->execute(); as that is where the error is occurring, and possibly the constructor and prepare methods also.
