select datepart("dd",MyDate) from table where ....

works just fine useing the database explorer. For a particular month I can
retrieve (for example)

COLUMN1
-------
2
3
5
24

showing me there are 4 days from that month in the database for that
particular year in the query.

problem is I cannot seem to cleanly get those results back into my C++ code,
inspecting MySqlQuery-> showed me the fields, fieldnames and values but i
dont what those. I want the values that are listed under "COLUMN1" ie: the
2,3,5 and 24 plus it would be nice to know there are 4 of them.

MySqlQuery->SQL = "select datepart("dd",MyDate) from MyTable";
MySqlQuery->ExecSQL();
.....????....


where can i extract the fact that there are 4 items whose values are 2,3,5
and 24?? If worse comes to worse, I assume one can fetch each record and
pull out the "day" field, but I would think that the sql query object would
have those values somewhere accessible already. Maybe not???

...thanks in advance..

MySqlQuery->SQL = "select datepart("dd",MyDate) from
MyTable";

Try naming the column so you can easily reference it. For
example "... MyDate) AS Column1 FROM MyTable".
Then read it in the normal way (FieldByName).

Don't you mean ->Open() here?
