Try adding a button to the control to the sample you are working with and have a label something like "Bottom".

Then, you can do one of the following

count rest
lnRecs = _tally
(this will move through all records from present to the end of the file)


OR

go bottom
lnRecs = reccount()

then you would have your record count from either present position, or entire set instead of skipping 1 record at a time...
