Inserting/show value/result from Execute SQL query into field/variable

Hi,

I am trying to insert the result of an SQL query into a field in FMP 11.

my SQL statement produces the correct result but i have not any way to show that result of query in filemaker

I can run the SQL query in a script using "Execute SQL", but I can't figure out how to send the results to a field in FMP.Also by import records sing ODBC and sql query builder it is mapping right into field but problem is this every time we have different queries and we don't know what will be the total columns in result for mapping with filemaker fields.

I don't want to hard code the value of the field to equal the SQL statement (as in a calculation), as I want to be able to retrieve this information at will.

Every type of assistance is appreciated.

Thanks,
