Hi !
The meta data gives all information you need about the tablöe, for example
to get column names you could:
ResultSet rs = ....
ResultSetMetaData meta = rs.getMetaData();
int count = meta.getColumnCount();
String[] cols = new String[ count];
int i;
for( i = 1; i <= count; i++)
cols[ i - 1] = meta.getColumnLabel( i);
I am not sure if this is what you want, if it is this all part of the JDBC
standard so just look it up in the JDBC docs.
