RE: Getting record count from OPNQRYF

Bob,

What I've done in the past is something like this:

DCL VAR(numrecs) TYPE(*DEC) LEN(10 0)
OVRDBF FILE(Myfile) SHARE(*YES)
OPNQRYF FILE(Myfile) +
                   QRYSLT('Somefield = "Something"') +
                    KEYFLD(somefield)
CPYFRMQRYF FROMOPNID(Myfile) TOFILE(Qtemp/Tempfile) MBROPT(*ADD) 
CRTFILE(*YES)
RTVMBRD FILE(Qtemp/Tempfile) MBR(*FIRST) NBRCURRCD(numrecs)
DLTF FILE(Qtemp/Tempfile)
...
CLOF OPNID(Myfile)
DLTOVR FILE(Myfile)

Hope this helps.

Is there a way within a CL program to get the record count from an OPNQRYF 
statement without having to read and count every record in the HLL program?

Thanks,
