If you had said so, it would have been more obvious what your problem
is. The posting only showed ifx_htmltbl suggesting that you didn't try
ifx_fetch_row which would be the obvious solution to your problem --
read the results into variables.

So, you don't like the associative array. Well, you should really rtm
;-)
Have a look at the array functions. You could pop or shift it, extract
all values to a new enumerated array or use foreach.

If you happen to have duplicate column names in your result, only one
will appear (even though ifx_htmltbl would produce correct output. In
this case you need to rename the columns. ("SELECT TABLE1.ID AS ID1,
TABLE2.ID AS ID2 ...")

You're welcome. No need to be sore. The answer fits the question.
Next time, be a little more verbose on your problem and you'll get the
help you desire.
