Yeah, I know, that's why I asked for VFP. Can you point to some MS documentation that explicitly states this?
...not trying to cast aspersions, I believe you and IME I've never seen it work any other way.
As a general rule I
always use an alternate construct like
IF REQUERY("MyView") = 1
IF RECCOUNT("MyView") > 0
