Description:
Returns a number that represents the number of records in the current found set.

Get (FoundCount) is often used in scripts, following finds, to determine navigation paths. In the following script, if one record is found, the Detail layout is shown. If multiple records are found, the List layout is shown. Finally, if no records are found, the script notifies the user with a dialog box.
If[Get(FoundCount)=1] Go To Layout[Detail] Else If[Get(FoundCount)>1] Go To Layout[List] Else Show Custom Dialog ["Empty Set"; "No Records Found"] End If
Examples:
If 240 records are in the found set, Get (FoundCount) returns 240.
