[AccessD] Simple Recordset Question

Gustav:

Will this work if there are no records in the table?

99% of the time there will be no records in the Matrix table.  It is
being used as a dump for non-valid items.  Thus if there are no records
life is good and the code goes on.  If there are records then the code
fixes the issues and then moves on.

Thanks for everyone's help.

Hi Doug and Steve

You don't even need "somefield":

  lngCount = DCount("*", "Matrix")

Why not just use dcount("somefield","Matrix")?  One line.

Subject: [AccessD] Simple Recordset Question

OK, I have a first grader level question for you all.

I have an access 2003 database and a form.  When I click a button on
said
form I would like the code to open a table as a recordset and count the
records.  I know I have done this before and I know I have seen this
done
quite easily.  However, I am getting an error that I cannot get past.

This is my code:

Dim rst_Matrix As Recordset
Dim int_X as integer
Set rst_Matrix = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("SELECT Matrix.* from Matrix;",
_
DbOpenDynaset, dbReadOnly)

rst_Matrix.MoveLast
int_X = rst_Matrix.RecordCount

On line 3 I am getting a type mis-match.  

What am I doing wrong and how do I get my code to get past this?

Thanks
