Return value
Long.
Returns the number of data points in the specified series if it succeeds and -1 if an error occurs. If any argument's value is null, DataCount returns null.
Examples
These statements store in ll_count the number of data points in the series named Costs in the graph gr_product_data:
long ll_count
ll_count = gr_product_data.DataCount("Costs")These statements store in ll_count the number of data points in the series named Salary in the graph gr_dept in the DataWindow control dw_employees:
long ll_count
ll_count = &
    dw_employees.DataCount("gr_dept", "Salary")See also
