Well, as I indicated in my most recent post - you can do it by fetching
the metadata, but it's a hard way of doing things.
Bind variables go both ways - if you're going to bind the parameters,
you need to bind the results, also. Or, you can use non-bound
statements and mysql(i)_fetch_array to get the results.
But you can't mix and match.
