/**********************************************************************
* FILENAME :        CopyDescriptor.c
*
* DESCRIPTION :
*       Example illustrates use of SQLCopyDesc to copy one table to another.
*       This is done by copying the descriptors of a SELECT statement to the
*       descriptors of an INSERT statement, with a loop which performs
*       SELECT and INSERT for all the records.
*
*       Basically the rows of the SELECT become the PARAMS of the INSERT
*
* ODBC USAGE :
*       SQLAllocHandle  to allocate two statement handles,
                        one a SELECT and one an INSERT
*       SQLGetStmtAttr  to obtain the ARD and IRD handles of the SELECT
*       SQLGetStmtAttr  to obtain the APD and IPD handles of the SELECT
*       SQLSetStmtAttr  with SQL_ATTR_ROW_BIND_TYPE to define ROW binding on
*                       the SELECT
*       SQLSetStmtAttr  with SQL_ATTR_ROW_ARRAY_SIZE to define the no of records
*                       on the SELECT
*       SQLSetStmtAttr  with SQL_ATTR_ROWS_FETCHED_PTR to define a variable into
*                       which the num of rows fetched are returned
*       SQLExecDirect   to execute a SELECT without need to be prepared
*       SQLBindCol      to bind the 4 columns in the SELECT
*       SQLCopyDesc     to copy the SELECT ARD descriptor to the INSERT APD
*                       descriptor
*       SQLCopyDesc     to copy the SELECT IRD descriptor to the INSERT IPD
*                       descriptor
*       SQLSetStmtAttr  to define the same status array for the
*                       SELECT and INSERT
*       SQLSetDescField to set the parameter type to SQL_PARAM_INPUT on each
*                       of the fields for the INSERT
*       SQLPrepare      to prepare the INSERT
*       SQLFetchScroll  on the SELECT followed by SQLExecute on the INSERT and
*                       SQLFetch until SQL_NO_DATA returned
*
*       The example (based on SQL SERVER) uses two active statements at the
*       same time and needs the Mars_Connection setting in the odbc.ini file
*       set to yes. This allowes Multiple Active Result Sets to work (for
*       concurrent SELECTs and INSERTs). MARS was new in SQLServer 2005.
