I need to be able to do this-

array columns = QUERY metadata ON table_name RETURN column_names;

That is, I am not sure how to query the metatables. I need to get all the
column names for a given table (I'll have the name of the table) and put
that into an array, so I can access it while I am exporting the data from a
table.

I need to couple the col_name with the data for each column, to get my XML
extention to the copy command to work.

thanks
matt
