Par2: Counting records in TPS files
1998-10-26 -- Wesley Coleman
 
Here is something that I have used for record counts with Topspeed Files in
the past. You might test it and see if it would be of any user in your
situation.

Use a build on a dynamic index with filter then use RECORDS(IndexName) to
get the total included in the index. e.g.

OrdMast
FILE,DRIVER('TOPSPEED'),NAME('Orders.tps'),PRE(ORDM),CREATE,BINDABLE,THREAD
ByCustOrder
KEY(ORDM:Company,ORDM:Location,ORDM:CusNum,ORDM:OrderNum),DUP,NOCASE,OPT
ByOrder
KEY(ORDM:Company,ORDM:Location,ORDM:OrderNum),DUP,NOCASE,OPT
ByUser                   INDEX,NOCASE,OPT
Record                   RECORD,PRE()
Company                     LONG
Location                    LONG
CusNum                      LONG
OrderNum                    LONG
LineNum                     LONG
ShipNum                     LONG
Name                        STRING(30)
Address1                    STRING(30)
Address2                    STRING(30)
City                        STRING(18)
State                       STRING(2)
Zip                         STRING(10)
                         END

TotalRecords  Long

  CODE
  BIND('ORDM:CusNum',ORDM:CusNum)
  BUILD(ORDM:ByUser,'+ORDM:Zip','ORDM:CusNum = 123')

  TotalRecords = RECORDS(ORDM:ByUser)
