title: Retrieving Column comments using MySQL ODBC driver
body: <p>I am using the following function call to retrieve the REMARKS of a column of my <strong>MySQL</strong> table.</p>
  
  <pre><code>SQLBindCol(st_handle,12, SQL_C_WCHAR,comment,512-1, &amp;l);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But comment is always an empty string.All other columns are retrieved.</p>
  
  <p>I am working on windows and using <strong>mysql ODBC 5.2</strong>.</p>
  
  <p>For oracle <strong>ODBC</strong> i need to set <strong>CatalogOptions=1</strong></p>

  <p>Is there a similar setting to be done for mysql odbc driver?</p>
