Count number of records in a report group where field is >99

I've been trying to use the DCount function to count the number of records in
a report group where the specified field is >990, with the following control
source placed into the group footer:

=DCount("[School]","Sheet1","[Papers] >99")

Problem is it give the total records of the entire table...not just within
the group.

Anyone have an idea how to fix this?

Thank you!

You are making Access work too hard. Try
=Abs( Sum( [Papers] >99 ) )

This assumes your text of 990 is a typo.
