I want to get the number of records in each of the tables in a database. When I open the .dbc file as a table I can scan for ObjectType = 'Table' and get the names but when I try to do a "select cnt(*) from (objectname) into array Cnt" I get the message that "The database for table ... could not be opened. Would you like to try to locate the owning database or delete the link (and free the table)?
Apparently if the DBC is open as a table it cannot be opened as a database and the system will not let a file linked to a database be opened if the database cannot be opened as well. There are a number of workarounds that I can think of but I'm wondering - Is there is a way to scan through the files in a database while the DBC is open as a database?
