Ok, then I have misunderstood the architecture, sorry. But still, I'm
having a problematic code with query() which in turn works seamless with
simplequery(). If anyone wants to check it out, I am willing to provide
it.

There is still the issue with resultset handles. When numrows e.g. is
given a handle which doesn't point to a real handle, it gives an error
with no descriptive information. I was suggesting the addition of
detailed error description for this.
