So there must be something I'm missing... I'm creating a report from a query, and in the page footer I want it to display the total of results from the query. I created a text box. For control source, I put =Count(*) and it comes back #Error... I got the equation from the help in Access, so I was pretty sure it would work, but it didn't .

Am I just missing something very basic here?

You have to do this:
=Count([YourTextBox])
I hope this helps:)

I tried that... See, some of the data in the fields his left blank, and the Access Help said that using the * wouldn't cause a problem if soem of the fields conatain a null value... So I tried using the *, and I tried using the field name of my primary key, which is in every record... I'm just not sure what's up.

You can put Is Not Null in your query and just show the records that have values in them, then do what you where doing. That might help.
