I know its Friday, but I need your assistance...

After setting a filter, how do I determine the number of records that

meet the condition

I have a table that has 60 records. I have a field called active which

is logical

If let say 45 records are true, and I set the filter to active=.t. How

do I know how many records would be available (45 in this example)

"My mind is going, I can feel it" "Would you like to hear a song..."

"Yes Hal"

count to lnFilteredRecordCount

or

count

lnFilteredRecordCount = _TALLY

or

SELECT COUNT(*) as lnFilteredRecordCount from MyTable where active = .t.

or

...

Matt already gave you two methods (using COUNT TO and _tally), but it

always makes me twitchy to do an aggregate function on a database and only

look for one item. So you may also want to look at the CALCULATE command.

CALCULATE can run a set of calculatons, including counts, average,

maximums, minimums, net present values, standard deviations, sums, and

variances. Maybe more too, but that's all that comes to mind off the top

of my head.
