Custom navigation controls

Question about navigation controls:

I have a simple form set up to enter information into a table. I
don't really like Microsoft Access' built in navigation features, so I
am making my own navigation buttons. While this is very easy to do, I
am having trouble on one part. The microsoft navigation controls at
the bottom tell you the current record that is selected, like, "35 of
108". I would like to re-create that feature inside my form to go
along with my custom Nav Buttons. It is very eay to get the total
number of records. I can use a simple DCOUNT statement for that.
Does anyone know a way that I can have Access display the number of
the currently selected record?

Thanks,
Matt

Try a text box with ControlSource of:
=[Form].[CurrentRecord]
