Example #1 List Columns of a Table
<?php
$conn = odbc_connect($dsn, $user, $pass);
$columns = odbc_columns($conn, 'TutorialDB', 'dbo', 'test', '%');
while (($row = odbc_fetch_array($columns))) {
print_r($row);
break; // further rows omitted for brevity
}
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
Array ( [TABLE_CAT] => TutorialDB [TABLE_SCHEM] => dbo [TABLE_NAME] => TEST [COLUMN_NAME] => id [DATA_TYPE] => 4 [TYPE_NAME] => int [COLUMN_SIZE] => 10 [BUFFER_LENGTH] => 4 [DECIMAL_DIGITS] => 0 [NUM_PREC_RADIX] => 10 [NULLABLE] => 0 [REMARKS] => [COLUMN_DEF] => [SQL_DATA_TYPE] => 4 [SQL_DATETIME_SUB] => [CHAR_OCTET_LENGTH] => [ORDINAL_POSITION] => 1 [IS_NULLABLE] => NO )
