How do I perform a calculation in a report and/or query?
I'm trying to produce a report that I need to count the number of member
id's, but the member id could be listed more than once. I only want to count it once. My report looks like this: Provider Id GrpNo. MemberId CaseNo. FromDate ThruDate Any suggestions would be great.

How do I perform a calculation in a report and/or query?
Create a totals query (or series of queries) that is similar to your
report's record source. Have it return only one record that is the count that you need. Add this query to your report's record source and don't feel obligated to join it to any other table (as long as it returns only a single record). Add your count field to the query grid and it will be available in your report. -- Duane Hookom MS Access MVP -- "LisaK" wrote in message ...

Hi Duane,
Your suggestion works partially. It gives the total number of the field to count, but, the other record duplicates itself for many times. How can this problem be solved? Please let us know.

How do I perform a calculation in a report and/or query?
Does your new "totals query" return only one row?
