odbc_field_scale
Quick note: as noted below, MS Access type AutoNumber comes across as type COUNTER. What I didn't see mentioned is that PHP interprets type COUNTER as a string, not an integer.
More annoying than anything else, in my particular case; but I'd guess it could bite somebody, somewhere.
