<code class="command">SET DESCRIPTOR</code> populates an SQL descriptor
area with values. The descriptor area is then typically used to
bind parameters in a prepared query execution.

This command has two forms: The first form applies to the
descriptor <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">header</span>”</span>, which is independent of a
particular datum. The second form assigns values to particular
datums, identified by number.
