I want to show the total number of records at the bottom of a report in Access.
I think it the formula =Count({FirstName)} should work, but I can't figure
out how to insert this onto the footer.

Hi

Create an unbound text box and place it in the report footer.

Use this as the control source for the text box.

=Count([firstname])

use an unbound text control in the REPORT Footer (not the Page
Footer).
=Count("*")

Thanks so much! "unbound text box" was exactly the clue I needed.
