record count

I receive an error 3464 when I put =count(*) in the controlsource of a
textbox on the report header. The error is thrown at the filter
created for the report when I docmd openreport. The error is not
thrown if the =count(*) is not used. I want the textbox in the header
of the report to show the number of records in the report.

Make sure the text box is in the Report Header section, not the Page Header
section.

Try adding quotes, e.g.:
=Count("*")

I am trying to get a record count of a PHP query on a MS Acess database using ODBC with a DSN for MS ACCESS connection. I got this code from the PHP manual user notes. It seems to return the correct recount if the count is greater than 0. It the count is 0 it returns the value of the $transid variable in the code. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? I need something that returns 0 if not records are found and an accurate count...

I needed a primary key so I created a record number field that was just the record number I manually inserted when I entered it in the database so I could sort the records by the date at which they were entered. Well now I've deleted some of those records so its of course causing gaps in the records. The record number in Access no longer matches my record number that I...

Firstly I identify all the parent records that have the requird number of child records and insert them into the result table.

Sorry to repost, but am having another look at deleting a record. I have a form (Member) and have removed all the event procedures associated with the Form (OnCurrent, OnDelete, OnActivate etc) When I click on the record bar and press delete it comes up with the correct message "You are about to delete 1 record ....", the record count drops by 1 and I say "Yes - delete it". Seems OK, record is no longer there. Than after closing the form...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
