RE: walk on one column in a table

DS> No - that's not what I said. I suggested tweaking the 'name'
parameter
if there were no *rows* in the table - if it was completely empty.
The idea was to skip calling the same handler 50 times, each of which
returned an empty column.

DS> Note that the agent can't assume that a failure in one column will
automatically mean a failure in the other columns - it's quite possible
to have a "sparse" table, where individual values are missing.
Or even for a particular column object not to be implemented at all.

DS> he agent can't know whether to skip to the end of the table - only
your code knows that.

DS> Now I'm not too surprised if this doesn't actually work - as Robert
says, such behaviour was regarded as "evil". But it was worth a try.
I suspect that you may need to switch to using the v5 handler-based
API if you want to be able to do this.

Can v5 handler-based API do that? Could you tell me where to start?
