I will forward to him to see if that works for him...my thanks for the very 
quick reply!  There are mutliple values that he would like to sum from that 
same field....can that be done in one formula to return the sum values of that 
field for each value type?
 
C = 25
R = 35
U = 145

If I understand the problem correctly, just set the property of the textbox
on the report to be
=dcount("status","my source query or table name","status = 'R' ")

Sure, I can try. Here goes.

In the report header we have a text box. Within that text box we would like
to have an expression that counts records from within the report below, that
equals a particular letter (value) in a specific column. For example:

The column in question has letters ('C', 'R', 'U', etc)

When the value within that column is an 'R' we would like to have the count
displayed, so of lets say 400 records, if 36 have 'R' in that column, the
textbox should display 36 not 0 or 400. 

Is this clear enough??
