I think either of (SELECT count(*) FROM cgt1) or count(*) from cgt1 should work in practice (I personally like the former because that's the scalar subquery syntax), however, since you're getting the count into gt1cnt, why not just use the variable? ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
