UBB.Developers Forums Community Development Programming PHP and Server-side Scripting finding the highest number in a .dat file

Im sure there are a few other people that I know that will have different opions. But you could use code like this to find how many rows are in your file.

sub TotalRows {
open (FILE, "filename.data");
@rows = ;
close (FILE);

$Total = @rows;
return($Total);
}

$totalrows = &TotalRows;

So that gives you the amount of rows in your file. I think this will accomplish what you want to do
