Recordcount in ASP

[Zelot]

Hi there,
I'm trying to create a simple login page with a typical username and password. BUt I can't seem to find the recordcount function in asp.net. Is there any alternative for this one. Thanks

Use a dataset to retrieve your data, then count its rows.

DataSet1.Tables(0).Rows.Count

Thanks for the reply ... can you post an example.

I think the best route for you is to go through an ADO.NET Tutorial.

Once you do that (it won't take long), you will figure out how to populate a dataset. Understanding how to do that is vital for your own future.

After that you can use the code I showed above to get a recordcount.

Thanks I just did that ... It's a bit different than VB. Thanks for helping us noobs

Yeah, the only thing VB6 and VB.NET share in common is a two letters and a common syntax, but the framework is relatively new.
