>>Good point -- I agree it is a meaningless number. Apparently the client is doing a survey and has requested the number -- we have done a number of systems for the client and are working on a large project right now. We'll be glad to do whatever they ask, but we will emphasize how meaningless the number really is!

>>Thanks very much to everyone for the other suggestions -- we are going to give a rough estimate [probably less than 10 Billion], but not the "exact" number of lines of code. Again, I didn't have any idea how to get a rough estimate other than to actually "count" the lines of code myself. You guys have saved me [and the client] time.

Can we get it down to a size where we can have a line per row in a native VFP table? 2G lines should be enough for anyone...
