Result Sets

You can access the same column information about the results of a query that you can for table schemas. See Columns for the columns returned.

Retrieving Result Set Metadata

You can use the GetSchemaTable method of the ExchangeDataReader to retrieve result set metadata. Call GetSchemaTable after calling ExecuteReader.

Each row of the DataTable describes a column in the query's result.

C#

string connectionString = "User='[email protected]';Password='myPassword';Server='https://outlook.office365.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx';Platform='Exchange_Online';Schema='EWS';";

using (ExchangeConnection conn = new ExchangeConnection(connectionString)) {
  ExchangeCommand cmd = new ExchangeCommand("SELECT * FROM Contacts WHERE BusinessAddress_City = 'Raleigh'", conn);
  ExchangeDataReader rdr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
  DataTable schemaTable = rdr.GetSchemaTable();
  foreach (DataRow row in schemaTable.Rows) {
    foreach (DataColumn col in schemaTable.Columns) {
      Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", col.ColumnName, row[col]);
    }
  }
}

VB.NET

Dim connectionString As String = "User='[email protected]';Password='myPassword';Server='https://outlook.office365.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx';Platform='Exchange_Online';Schema='EWS';"

Using conn As New ExchangeConnection(connectionString)
  Dim cmd As New ExchangeCommand("SELECT * FROM Contacts WHERE BusinessAddress_City = 'Raleigh'", conn)
  Dim rdr As ExchangeDataReader = cmd.ExecuteReader()
  Dim schemaTable As DataTable = rdr.GetSchemaTable()
  For Each row As DataRow In schemaTable.Rows
    For Each col As DataColumn In schemaTable.Columns
      Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", col.ColumnName, row(col))
    Next
  Next
End Using
