To get RecID for link you use
        gDB.table(gTableName).recordCount  ???

This is not correct, Paolo !
IF you delete some record you will get wrong values.

You MUST to use Vtable.RecID.

BinaryLink store pairs of RecID  values!!!

    recid = VTable.RecID   -- this is API Way

    SqlSelect( "select RecID, * FROM T")    -- this is SQL way.

        tbl = db.Table( "Person" )

Now you can do 

        tbl.RecID = 5       -- to go to record with RecID 5
    
        recid = tbl.RecID   -- to get RecID of the current record.

Everything is simple.

I wonder you say, you do not see how to get Table. But how you show records
of that table in API way? You already must to have tbl to be able show
records. Right ?
