Thanks for the info.
So, if I have a table with 100 rows and export them and then count D
records with IXFDRID='001', the number I get is never less than 100, right?
Less because you say there can be XMl columns, ....
Best regards,

and read IXF file counting 'D' records with IXFDRID='001' you *may* get
a good approximation on number of rows in the IXF file.

Keep in mind that LOG locator columns, XML columns have their D records
