(PHP 4, PHP 5)

odbc_fetch_into — Fetch one result row into array

### Description

int odbc_fetch_into ( resource `$result_id` , array `&$result_array` [, int `$rownumber` ] )
bool odbc_fetch_into ( resource `$result_id` [, int `$rownumber` ], array `&$result_array` )

Returns the number of columns in the result; `FALSE` on error. `result_array` must be passed by reference, but it can be of any type since it will be converted to type array. The array will contain the column values starting at array index 0.

As of PHP 4.0.5 the `result_array` does not need to be passed by reference any longer.

As of PHP 4.0.6 the `rownumber` cannot be passed as a constant, but rather as a variable.

As of PHP 4.2.0 the `result_array` and `rownumber` have been swapped. This allows the rownumber to be a constant again. This change will also be the last one to this function.
