>Hilmar already posted the solution regarding MOD(). If your table might contain deleted records and you have SET DELETED ON, than you might prefer to have your own counter variable inside the scan loop, rather than using recno().
Also in some other cases: SET FILTER, SET ORDER.
OTOH, if you SELECT ... INTO CURSOR NOFILTER and then process the result (for a report), none of the above apply.
