Display record number on report

[jeffcravener]

I would like to be able to show the record number on a report. So, that way if someone sees a record on the report, they know which record number it is if they need to change or view all of the detaisl of the record.

Any ideas?

Have you got record numbers in your table? Access does not have record numbers.

What's a record number?

Hmmm....well, when i open a table, each one has a record number...right next to it...or at least a number on the left side. and in the bottom on the form, oit says record 3 of 560 or whatever.

These are just an indication of the current position. Sort the table by something, you will find that the record that was "record number 3" is now "record number n". Filter, and the bottom bit will say, perhaps, "3 of 10".
