Hi sridhar, it depends on ur requirement.To keep a count of the number of records in the middle of the query, then u can define a integer variable and keep incrementing it after each retreiving each record. i already posted the code in this forum some time back.. cheers, Raj

Hi, Instead of traversing the whole ResultSet and then getting the count, a simpler option is do get the count of the rows using the statement select count(*) from <table-name> Hope It Helps. Mahesh
