Solution 2

THe simplest way would be to run a loop on the reader and simultaneously count rows in a variable ->

if (dr.HasRows) {  
int count = 0;     
while (dr.Read()) {     
count++;  
}

Now count will contain the number of records.

Solution 1

You will have to loop through the reader to find out the number of rows.

C#

int count = 0;
while (Rdr.Read())
{
    count++;
}
//check the value of count here. This will be the number of rows returned.

Hope this helps!
