| I guess you are doing this in an application. You should be able to get the count from the resultset.Otherwise"set nocount on select ... into #a from ..... select cnt, #a.* from #a, (select count(*) from #a) a"unless you are v2005 in which case you can use a CTE.==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.DTS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |
