MSSQL Describe
Hi
I've recently been put in charge of a website that uses the asp/mssql combo. Unfortunately in my google travels I've been unable to find a basic guide or structured tutorials on mssql. Basically what I need is the equivalent of the MySQL Describe command.

So how do I extract the field names and types using asp?

If the above is confusing, you can see the Mysql example here

Thanks
