perl@1983 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello Monks, I am generating an HTML page from a (Sybase) resultset of a select query (using latest versions of DBI and DBD::Sybase). In that, I am printing the column names, but along with column names, I also wanted to print the datatype and size of respective columns. Can someone please guide with regards to how can I get the datatypes and size of each column? I've gone through the DBI and DBD::Sybase + some online articles, but couldn't figure it out. Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
