The regular UPDATE statement returns this number. So, depending on how your procedures are constructed, you may be able to get this as a return value. Or, if you're working in a looping construct, count the number of records you change. -- #! /bin/sh # ppp-address: What's my Internet Address for ppp0 ? /sbin/ifconfig ppp0 2> /dev/null | grep 'inet addr:' | sed \ 's=.*inet addr\:\([0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}\).*=\1='
