Set the cursor Location of the Recordset to aduseClient

Then recordset.recordcount will show the record count

SELECT * FROM MyTable
SELECT [RowCount] = @@ROWCOUNT

would do it - but you would have to process the first recordset to get to the second one which has the answer!

A variation on that theme would be:

SELECT [RowCount] = COUNT(*) FROM MyTable WHERE ...
SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE ...
