What It Does

This integer increments continuously while a program runs. It contains the number of records that meet the criteria in the constraint.

Notes

• You must initialize constrain_found_count to zero (0) at the point where you wish to begin counting.
• You can visually debug Data Dictionary objects (DDOs) and test the efficiency of constrained finds using the Data Dictionary Inspector.
