Basically, what I'm trying to do is to take my query:

$query = sprintf("select * from purchase_order_data where vendor_id like
 '%%%s%%'", $auth->auth[uname]);
$db->query($query);

and instead of just dumping it all out with $t->show_result($db, "metadata"),
I'd like to only display certain columns, instead of all of them.

I have looked at that class before, thinking it might hold some clues; I will
take a closer look again. Thanks for the suggestion.
