As these functions return the contents of multiple cells in one function call, they're MUCH quicker than sybase_result(). Also, note that specifying a numeric offset for the field argument is much quicker than specifying a fieldname or tablename.fieldname argument. </para> <para> Recommended high-performance alternatives: <function>sybase_fetch_row</function>, <function>sybase_fetch_array</function> and <function>sybase_fetch_object</function>. </para> </refsect1> <refsect1 role="parameters"> &reftitle.parameters; <para> <variablelist> <varlistentry> <term><parameter>result</parameter></term> <listitem> <para> </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry> <term><parameter>row</parameter></term> <listitem> <para> </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry> <term><parameter>field</parameter></term> <listitem> <para> The field argument can be the field's offset, or the field's name, or the field's table dot field's name (tablename.fieldname).
