Hello,

I'm playing with the Trial and I'm comparing it with the MySQL .net connector (version 5).

Right now I use the following functions

I tried to run the same commands in mysqldirect and was suprised to see that it didin't work. By looking in the help file, I saw this:
Now, I'm asking, did I get all of this wrong? Is there no way to refence to a data column by it's name? Because frankly, I've always thought that reading data by column index was a bad move as it's not as reliable as column name.

Thank you for your answer.

Thanks

You are welcome.
