THIS SHOULD BE EASY, BUT I CAN'T REMEMBER HOW TO DO IT. I WANT TO DO A SELECT STATEMENT AND CREATE A FIELD THAT INCREMENTS WITH EACH RECORD SO IF THERE ARE FOUR RECORDS THE NEW FIELD LETS CALL IT COUNT1 WILL BE POPULATED WITH 1-4.

ANY HELP WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

THANK YOU.

Hello... from a gupta application you can use the function SqlGetResultSetCount( ) to get the number of rows in the result-set of your SQL-Statement. But if you use this function you must acivate the result-set of this specified connection-handle with SqlSetResultSet( TRUE ).
Don´t forget to disable the result set after the execution with SqlSetResultSet( FALSE ). If you don´t do this this handle will be use more memory as needed in the following opperations.

hmmm... I only know the function "rowcount" but you only can use it to get total number of rows in a table and not on a specified sql statement...
