I need to get a simple record count in the footer of my report. I have tried
= count but no success. I run Windows XP but I notice my Access program
reads "Access 2000 file format". Can anyone help?
 
You stated "in the footer of my report" but I think your text box is in the
"Page" footer. The expression will work in every section of your report
except the Page Header and Page Footer.
