[Zope] Get Column Names from SQL Query?

I have found something that does this but haven't managed to make it work as
I want it to yet!
<dtml-let Fields="queries.qryreturnallusers().names()">
  		<dtml-in Fields>
			<dtml-var sequence-item></p>
		</dtml-in>
</dtml-let>
This gives the column headers
If anyone knows of a way of doing this which gives the data as well as the
headers in one fail swoop then let me know too.

Subject: [Zope] Get Column Names from SQL Query?


I want to run an SQL query, like

select * from person

Then I want to extract the column names from the returned data.  In other
words, I don't want to hand-code them into the result page.

I know how to do this in Cold Fusion, but I don't know how in Zope.

I'm using a ZSQL method, of course, to query the database.

Anyone know how to do this without running an external method?
