And in case it helps, this is a little different than a normal cursor, 
where you grab it and keep pulling results from it.

When you get your first set of MQL results, you get a pointer to the 
next set. In that next set, you will get a pointer to the following set. 
In the following set, you get yet another pointer. Just keep getting the 
pointer out of the new set to get to the next set and you'll be fine.

Oh, and also unlike a normal cursor, it doesn't appear that you have to 
close or free up the cursor when you're done.
