OBJECT.RECORDS_GET Function
Syntax
Record_Count as N = .Records_get()
Description
Returns the number of records displayed in the layout.
The <OBJECT>.RECORDS_GET() method applies to:
- Browses (for <OBJECT> use either the <BROWSE> pointer or the name of the browse)
- Forms (for <OBJECT> use either the <FORM> pointer or the name of the form)
The <OBJECT>.RECORDS_GET() method returns the number of records displayed by the layout.
This script attached to a button on the form tells how many records are displayed by the form:
dim ptr as P ui_msg_box("Records", str(topparent.records_get())) ptr = form.load("Customer Information") ptr.show() ? ptr.Records_Get() = 60.000000 ptr = browse.view("CustomerBrowse") ? ptr.Records_Get() = 60.000000
