How many lines in text?

[lespaul]

Prior to importing data I would like the user to verify that the number of records is correct. Other than looping through the file and incrementing the number of lines while not eof, is there another way to find out how many lines are in the text file?

Thanks! Leslie

ps - If I do have to loop through the file for the count, how do I then position to the first line again?

thx Leslie

I guess Reset(F) will put me back at the first row??

Amazing what can happen when you start to understand code!!

You can load your text file into a TStringList and read Count property.
