Item Counter
Maarten Brusselers

On my invoices I always put an Item field.  Item 1, Item 2 etc. When I try to use Count() to create this every item field in my continuous form gets the same value.  How do I create such a counter?

Doesn't seem to work.  I need a counter that fills in the item field with 1 for the first item, 2 for the second and so on

It does not need to go into any table, just on the form.

Got it.  Can only use it in a report, not a continuous form.  That is fine, thanks.

Here's how I would do it in a Form. For new records you would get a #Error so use the IIF Function.
