Thanks for this, BwanaZulia (& RobTrew)!

Merged threads (removing a couple of posts that didn't make sense in that state) and moved the merged thread to the Extras forum. Should be simpler to keep subsequent discussion on track if it's in a single thread.

Thanks Brian - can we review the title of the merged thread ? I'm not sure that I understand it :-)

Suggestions welcome! I just copy/pasted the title that BZ had on his posts about the script....

Well, the script is called "Count Database Items"...

[QUOTE=whpalmer4;91578]Well, the script is called "Count Database Items"...[/QUOTE]

So perhaps something like "Applescript to count database items" ?

Also, Brian, I notice that the "Moved thread" pointer is in [B]this[/B] forum. Was the intention perhaps to put it in the OF for Mac forum, for the benefit of those who might expect to find the discussion continuing over there ?

How the heck did I manage to do that? I AM AWESOME. :-)

Fixing.
