Re: data pointer in mysql

[Omega dark]

i don't know exactly what you mean, but if you're using php aswell, you could make this type of data pointer constructions:

$qry = mysql_query("select customer_name as name from customers");
$data = mysql_fetch_object($qry);

print $data->name;

or when you have the query "select * from customers" then you could access every colomn name in this way.

print $data->customer_name;
print $data->orderId;
print $data->product_name;
etc.
