+=item NUM_OF_FIELDS

+Number of fields returned by a I<SELECT> or I<LISTFIELDS> statement.

+A zero value indicates a non-SELECT statement like I<INSERT>,
+I<DELETE> or I<UPDATE>.

+A reference to an array of column types. The engine's native column
+types are mapped to portable types like DBI::SQL_INTEGER() or
