It reports the number of rows processed on a link. The macro is defined as DSGetLinkInfo(DSJ.ME,DSJ.ME,DSJ.ME,DSJ.LINKROWCOUNT)

There isn't one. You would normally use this macro/function in before/after subroutine, which is always a server routine even in a parallel job. If you need to get the link row count while a job is running (which is highly inefficient), use @INROWNUM or @OUTROWNUM system variables.

The correct spelling is "Please". Please use correct spelling on DSXchange. It aids those whose first language is not English.
