.SH NAME
msqlNumRows \- Return number of rows in a result table
.SH SYNOPSYS
.nf
.B #include <msql.h>
.sp
.BI "int msqlNumRows(m_result *" result );
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
The number of rows returned by a query can be found by calling
.B msqlNumRows()
and passing it the result handle returned by
.BR msqlStoreResult (3).
The number of rows of data sent as a result of the query is returned
as an integer value.  If a SELECT query didn't match any data,
.B msqlNumRows()
will indicate that the result table has 0 rows (note: earlier versions
of mSQL returned a NULL result handle if no data was found.  This has
been simplified and made more intuitive by returning a result handle
with 0 rows of result data).

.SH "RETURN VALUE"
The number of rows in
.IR result .
