    Hi Is there any direct way to get the number of records in random access files except by calculating the length of file and then dividing it by the length of each record. (Visual Studio 2003) Thanks

      You have two choices. You can either "do the math", or you can read the entire file record-by-record and count them. There's no other way to do it.
