I have a database that inputs the countries that international students are from. I was wondering if I can create a report that counts those countries, and will update when a new student is added.

Thanks for your time,

Robert Brockie

Create a new report and use the sql statement I emailed you as the datasource.

The DCount function will count anything, including string values.
