How to count rows in DBgrid/DataGrid

hi,
i need to know how to count the number of rows in a DBgrid of
VB 5.0 or rows of a DataGrid in VB 6.0?

i know how many columns i have, but the number of the rows can change depending
on input.

please post code

Since DBGrid and DataGrid are DataBound controls, they are attached to a datacontrol.
You can know the number of rows of your recordset with the RecordCount property,
it is the number of rows in your Grid.

Be carefule here. If you are using ADO the RecordCount property may sometimes
return -1... pretty cool huh! Yep you got some records!

If this occurs the only solution I've been able to come up with is looping
through the recordset until EOF and increment a counter.
