I think you complicating things ... Troy has it right:
Sure files could be resized, and code re-engineered, and all these good
thing do help, but I reduced a process scanning 20 million records from 12
days to 2 days just taking out the CRT to screen informing the user of
progress (or lack of progress.)
on such a large number I'd set the interval to around 20000, so that the
code as below sits at
n,count += 1
if rem(count,20000) then
CRT n.count:' / ' : tot.count
end
