Emmitt,
You are NOT dreaming. Ask and you shall receive!
Use the ISTAT Functions of The Glorious R:BASE 2000!
Syntax: (ISTAT('keyword'))
Options:
. (ISTAT('DBSIZE'))
DBSIZE returns the size of the currently open database
(total of the four database files). If no database is
connected, ISTAT returns 0.
SET VAR vSize = (ISTAT('DBSIZE'))
. (ISTAT('RB1SIZE'))
The RB1SIZE parameter returns the size, in bytes, of
the RB1 file of the currently connect database.
You may need to use the following syntax for large
databases:
SET VAR vSize DOUBLE = (ISTAT('RB1SIZE'))
. (ISTAT('RB2SIZE'))
The RB2SIZE parameter returns the size, in bytes, of
the RB2 file of the currently connect database.
You may need to use the following syntax for large
databases:
SET VAR vSize DOUBLE = (ISTAT('RB2SIZE'))
. (ISTAT('RB3SIZE'))
The RB3SIZE parameter returns the size, in bytes, of
the RB3 file of the currently connect database. You
may need to use the following syntax for large
databases:
SET VAR vSize DOUBLE = (ISTAT('RB3SIZE'))
. (ISTAT('RB4SIZE'))
The RB4SIZE parameter returns the size, in bytes, of
the RB4 file of the currently connect database. You
may need to use the following syntax for large
databases:
SET VAR vSize DOUBLE = (ISTAT('RB4SIZE'))
