  <para>
   <function>maxdb_stmt_bind_result</function> is used to associate (bind) columns in the result
   set to variables. When <function>maxdb_stmt_fetch</function> is called to fetch data, the MaxDB
   client/server protocol places the data for the bound columns into the specified variables
   <parameter>var1, ...</parameter>.
  </para>
  <note>
   <para>
    Note that all columns must be bound prior to calling <function>maxdb_stmt_fetch</function>.
    Depending on column types bound variables can silently change to the corresponding PHP type.
   </para>
   <para>
    A column can be bound or rebound at any time, even after a result set has been partially retrieved.
    The new binding takes effect the next time <function>maxdb_stmt_fetch</function> is called.
   </para>
