odbc_next_result — Checks if multiple results are available

### Description

bool odbc_next_result ( resource `$result_id` )

odbc_next_result() returns `TRUE` if there are more result sets available as well as allowing access to the next result set via odbc_fetch_array(), odbc_fetch_row(), odbc_result(), etc.

This function returns `FALSE` on error.

The argument is a valid result identifier returned by odbc_exec().

Example#1 odbc_next_result()

`<?php
$r_Connection = odbc_connect($dsn, $username, $password);
$s_SQL = <<<END_SQL
SELECT 'A'
SELECT 'B'
SELECT 'C'
END_SQL;
$r_Results = odbc_exec($r_Connection, $s_SQL);
$a_Row1 = odbc_fetch_array($r_Results);
$a_Row2 = odbc_fetch_array($r_Results);
echo "Dump first result set";
var_dump($a_Row1, $a_Row2);
echo "Get second results set ";
var_dump(odbc_next_result($r_Results));
$a_Row1 = odbc_fetch_array($r_Results);
$a_Row2 = odbc_fetch_array($r_Results);
echo "Dump second result set ";
var_dump($a_Row1, $a_Row2);
echo "Get third results set ";
var_dump(odbc_next_result($r_Results));
$a_Row1 = odbc_fetch_array($r_Results);
$a_Row2 = odbc_fetch_array($r_Results);
echo "Dump third result set ";
var_dump($a_Row1, $a_Row2);
echo "Try for a fourth result set ";
var_dump(odbc_next_result($r_Results));
?>`

The above example will output:

    Dump first result set array(1) {
      ["A"]=>
      string(1) "A"
    }
    bool(false)
    Get second results set bool(true)
    Dump second result set array(1) {
      ["B"]=>
      string(1) "B"
    }
    bool(false)
    Get third results set bool(true)
    Dump third result set array(1) {
      ["C"]=>
      string(1) "C"
    }
    bool(false)
    Try for a fourth result set bool(false)
