dbrowtype

Returns the type of the current row.

Syntax

STATUS dbrowtype ( PDBPROCESS dbproc );

Arguments

dbproc

Is the DBPROCESS structure that is the handle for a particular workstation/ Microsoft® SQL Server™ process. It contains all the information that DB-Library uses to manage communications and data between the workstation and SQL Server.

Returns

One of four values:

• If the current row is a regular row, REG_ROW is returned.
• If the current row is a compute row, the computeid of the row is returned (for more information about computeid, see dbaltbind).
• If no rows have been read, NO_MORE_ROWS is returned.
• If dbrowtype was unsuccessful, FAIL is returned.

Remarks

Because dbnextrow returns the type (regular or compute) of the current row, you can usually determine the row type without using dbrowtype.
