I am new to Access and have created a conference database. I need to report
on the number of participants who attended by their agency. How do I set up
a report to reflect this information?

Hopefully, the following references can get you started. First, you should
create a query to calculate the number of participants by agency. This
normally done with a "GROUP BY" query, using the "Count" aggregate function.
The following KB article give more information on creating such a query. In
the article, the instructions refer to the SUM function. Just use the Count
function instead.

Your query might look similar to the following:

SELECT Agency, Count(*) as AgencyCount
FROM MyTable
GROUP BY Agency

Once you have created the query, you can use it as the basis for your report
(Record Source property). Below is a download link for some sample Access
reports that you can use as a guide.
