Jay, I am querying an Informix database, not MySQL. When I count the rows against my MSSQL database I do use the mssql_num_rows function and it works great. I tried using the ifx_num_rows function with the ifx_fetch_row function but could not seem to get it to work, so instead I used the ifx_affected_rows function to return the query count.
