Use ISPF 3.2 Option for that.

You can also open a PDS and find the total no of members on the right hand top corner.

Ankur must be mentioning that:
Open the PDS in 3.4 and see this on the right hand top corner.

Thanks som for yr reply!
Priyesh you can open any PDS through 3.4 by specifying either B,E,M,V options. When u open the PDS the top right hand corner shows the total no of members as in the screen shot.
