Sorry to jump in, but _TALLY and RECCOUNT() can give different results.
If you run the SQL select command using the NOFILTER clause, then yes, they will return the same, since the results are stored in a temporary cursor.

If you don't use the NOFILTER clause, then there is a chance that you could end up with a filtered result set where RECCOUNT() returns all records in the table and _TALLY will return the number of "filtered" records.
