Hello Alex,

It will only return 1 row because that's all you've asked it to return
- a count of the number of records.
This is for MySQL but you'll get the idea:
$sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) AS hits FROM CF_Survey";
$hits = mysql_result($result, 0, "hits");
Run your query directly in MSSQL and you'll see what gets returned.
