My database has 3 tables in it. How does it know which table to count records in. Spent an hour and a half looking through Google links to dbase_numrecords, every place I go has a mirror image of the same example, but does not specify which table. I understand, $db is the string that holds the name of the database. Or should it be the name of the table in the database.
