Index Services query results less than reported in Indexing Services

[AC]

I used Hilary's code to select all files from my catalog.

This is basically what I used but with early binding (MS Access 2003).
=============
set ixsso=createobject("Ixsso.query")
ixsso.Catalog="web"
ixsso.Columns="FileIndex, Path, FileName"
ixsso.Query="Select FileIndex, path, Filename from Web"

set RecordSet=Ixsso.CreateRecordSet("nonSequential")
================

I should get all indexed files I think/hope.

Indexing Services reports 540,000+ files but I am only getting about 206,000
files. I even included AddScopeToQuery with "/" and "deep" which did
nothing. Why don't I get all of the indexed files?

There was a bug where if you did a rescan it would report the documents in
the index twice. IIRC this would be fixed on the next merge.

Can you do a check to see how many files there are in this directory.

There are about 1.3 million in the tree. We know we are only getting a
subset of the files and expect it. These files are a collection from hard
drives with all of the Windows and other application files. We also have
additional Ifilters such as pdf, xml, zip, ...

Thanks for the tip about the bug.
