Currently, I'm simply doing this for now:

RowCount = OCCURS(CHR(13),FILETOSTR(m.Filename))

Is there a better (read: FASTER) way?  These are tab delimited text
files so I can't really use FSEEK or FSIZE(m.Filename) (which requires
SET COMPATIBLE ON) because I can't be sure of each record's length.

Hi Mike,

I have never used fsize this way, I always use fseek to calculate files size.

m.handle = fopen(m.Filename, 0)
m.size = fseek(m.handle, 0, 2)
fclose(m.handle)

To answer your question, try this:

create cursor TMP_CURSOR (DUMMY Character (1))

append from (m.Filename) sdf

m.RowCount = reccount() +1

USE in TMP_CURSOR

? m.RowCount

May be you must use only reccount() instead of reccount() +1.


Ok now I get your approach. Cool trick. I tried it. In testing, it actually wasn't any faster than the OCCURS approach. But thanks for the response though!
