You don't want or you can't use Select Count?

I really don't know if there is a FM for it but using Select Count you will waste just one code line.

Can you explain your problem using the select way?

You can use the Function module : DMC_COUNT_TABLE_ENTRIES

Pass the table name and the IM_Exact_count = 'X'

you will get the number of entries in a table.
