That aint' gonna fix it... the pseudo column name of the result is still
different.
John: I think you may be out of luck, you're probably going to have to
deal with
the difference in your java code, this changed in the new version as you
said and I
had to change my code to use the column index rather than the name,
since there is only
one column in the result set it is no big deal.
