cannot put msSQL column names into array

I'm trying to put the column names of a msSQL table into an array. Using

for ($i = 0; $i < mssql_num_fields($result); ++$i) {
    echo mssql_field_name($result) . "<br><br>";
}

the column names print to the screen just fine. Also get_type() shows that they are strings. However, when I try to put them into an array like this:

$column_names = array();
for ($i = 0; $i < mssql_num_fields($result); ++$i) {
     $current_column = mssql_field_name($result);
     array_push($column_names, $current_column);
}

var_dump($column_names); gives me an array (albeit the expected length) of boolean values. All false. I would expect to see an array containing the names of all my columns. What am I doing wrong here? Thank you

Looks like you are missing the $i argument on the mssql_field_name call. Try this maybe:

$column_names = array();
for ($i = 0; $i < mssql_num_fields($result); ++$i) {
    $column_names[] = mssql_field_name($result, $i);
}
