Doing DESC in Pro*C

[Quoted] Is there a way to perform a "DESC" on a table using Pro*C. I want to enumerate the column names and types for a particular table using Pro*C at runtime.

[Quoted] I've seen that you can do a DESCRIBE on a prepared DSQL statement, but this (I think) enumerates the types of the columns contained in the statement - i.e. requires prior knowledge of the table.

[Quoted] I'm trying to write a tool that sniffs out the available tables and displays the available columns along with column types.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
