Hello Budgee, On 14-Aug-00 08:03:41, you wrote: >The following code had two ways of counting the number of rows >returned in a result. The first uses a loop counter, the seconf the >odbc_num_rows function. Any ideas why the second doesn't work. >It returns -1, the error code. Because some ODBC drivers start returning query rows before the query search has ended, so they can't guess how many rows there will be in total in the result set. This is a good thing because it usually means the client (PHP) may start browsing over the results before the search is over and so the query processing runs faster.
