Default Numbering each record displayed in detail section of report

I'm a beginner so this might be a stupid questions, but...

My report lists all of the employees in a group. Is there a way that I can
number the records in the first column? For example...

1 Employee Name and info.
2 Employee Name and info.
3 Employee Name and info.
4 Employee Name and info.
....

Any help is much appreciated.

Good question but one that is answered quite often.
Add a text box in the detail section and set its properties
Control Source: =1
Running Sum: Over Group (or Over All)

You can add a text box in the detail section
In the control source of this text box write
=1
And change the running sum property of the field to yes.
