mssql_fetch_array — Fetch a result row as an associative array, a numeric array, or both
This function was REMOVED in PHP 7.0.0.
Alternatives to this function include:
$result
[, int $result_type = MSSQL_BOTH
] )mssql_fetch_array() is an extended version of mssql_fetch_row(). In addition to storing the data in the numeric indices of the result array, it also stores the data in associative indices, using the field names as keys.
An important thing to note is that using mssql_fetch_array() is NOT significantly slower than using mssql_fetch_row(), while it provides a significant added value.
resultThe result resource that is being evaluated. This result comes from a call to mssql_query().

the following values: MSSQL_ASSOC,
MSSQL_NUM, and
MSSQL_BOTH.
Returns an array that corresponds to the fetched row, or FALSE if there
are no more rows.
Example #1 mssql_fetch_array() example
<?php
// Send a select query to MSSQL
$query = mssql_query('SELECT [username], [name] FROM [php].[dbo].[userlist]');
// Check if there were any records
if (!mssql_num_rows($query)) {
echo 'No records found';
} else {
// The following is equal to the code below:
//
// while ($row = mssql_fetch_row($query)) {
while ($row = mssql_fetch_array($query, MSSQL_NUM)) {
// ...
}
}
// Free the query result
