Well, this returns the same as a len count of it's content. But I'm not sure what happens with multibyte characters. I tested it with several files, and alternate streams and filesystem overhead and security meta data are not added to this count. If you want to actually count the number of cars, there is probably no alternative then to actually loop through the contents and coutn it yourself. (as len() does). But this is way faster :)~ Jesse ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists&body=lists/cf_talk FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm
