Need to display record number on continuous subform

I need to be able to display the current record number in a textbox control
in a continous subform. I know that CURRENTRECORD is the property I need. But
what EVENT for the subform will provide the result? I've tried a bunch of
different events, to no avail.

Any ideas out there folks?

Thanks a million!

Have you tried using the Current event of the subform?

I assume you are aware the currentrecord property is of limited value. You
can never expect it to be the same for a specific record. It is really only
the relative record number for the current recordset. As soon as you add or
delete a record, the number will change.

Yes, I tried that event to no avail. However, in light of your further
comments, I see no need to populate the form with that information.

Thanks!

That's good news.
About the only time I use the current record property is in my custom
navigation buttons to know whether enable or disable buttons.
