Solution 2

SQL

Select Count(*) TotalRows From TableName

This will return you the total number of rows in a table in SQL Server.
Create a procedure and use CommandObject.ExecuteScalar() method in ASP.NET to get the value in ASP.NET

Just a small modification there;
Select Count(0) TotalRows From TableName
Instead of using * use 0, it improves query performance.

I cannot find anything on the web (for SQL) which discusses this thing in detail.
So I am curious to know if there is considerate difference in the performance? Can you give me a link which discusses this thing in detail?
Thanks!
