Microsoft Access with JDBC: how to get the "caption" property of a given field?

at work we have to deal with several legacy databases stored in the Microsoft Access format. One of the informations we need to extract is the "ca开发者_StackOverflow社区ption" property of the fields on a given table.

If we are using VB Script, this is quite easy, as you can see on the code above:

set dao = server.createobject("DAO.DBEngine.36")
    set bd = dao.opendatabase(arquivo, false, false, ";PWD=password")

    set query = bd.openRecordSet("select * from table")

    for i = 0 to query.fields.count - 1
    on error resume next
        response.write query.fields(i).name & "=" & query.fields(i).Properties("Caption") & vblf
    next 

How can we achieve the same results using JDBC? I know about the ResultSetMetaData class, and that it have a method called getColumnLabel(), which should return this caption property, but that's not happening.

Here is our code in Groovy:

ResultSet query = conexao.createStatement().executeQuery("select * from table")
metadata = query.getMetaData()
for (i = 1; i < metadata.getColumnCount(); i++) {
    String columnName = metadata.getColumnName(i)
    String label = metadata.getColumnLabel(i)

}

So here is my question: is it possible to retrieve this information using JDBC? If it is, how?

This is probably a driver issue. Try another MS Access JDBC driver. There is a list at sun.
