How Many Lines Read?

[admin]

LineCount = 0
Loop
ReadSeq ... Else Exit
LineCount += 1
Repeat

will be the most efficient.

The FileInfo() function has a key that returns the current line.
FileInfo(filevariable,FINFO$CURRENTLINE)

Constants for FileInfo() function key arguments are declared in the header file FILEINFO.H; add the declaration $INCLUDE UNIVERSE.INCLUDE FILEINFO.H in your code before using the FileInfo() function.

Quick question, I am reading a file using

Loop until EOF
Readseq .....
Repeat

Is there a similar function that will tell me the number of lines read from the file ?
