Actually, you will normally catch the error.
If dbresults() returns FAIL, then you should call it once more and it
will return NO_MORE_RESULTS, which will let you exit the loop.
At least that's the way I've always coded things, and it's the way
it's worked for me in the past.
I could of course be wrong :-)
