ADO: .movefirst ?

[Ward]

Hi,
Question : How can I iterate more than once over a query resultset ?

Usually this is how I connect to my odbcdatabase (classic stuff) :

$object=odbc_exec($con,$sql);
while ($row=odbc_fetch_array($object) {

blablah;

}

Now suppose I want to loop through it again, how do I reset the pointer to
the beginning ?
I realize doing $row[]=odbc_fetch_array is an option.
thx

Afaik, odbc_exec (preferably using odbc_prepare) or your suggestion are
the alternatives you have.

Using postgre you could use pg_result_seek..
