Thanks so much for taking the time to respond, Karen.

I got through your steps to the end, so very clear explanation.  Unfortunately, 
all I get is “1” as a response no matter what where clauses I use in testing 
the report.  It sounds like this is the right method, so I don’t know why it’s 
not working.

Since you upgraded from an earlier version, I'm guessing you might have an "old 
style" variable.   You should instead locate a "DB Calc".  Find that control in 
the database controls list and locate it on the report (delete the location for 
your variable).   Above it, you'll see a "data field" area where you select the 
column you are counting.  Then right-click on the control, select Calculations, 
and select "count".   Now it will operate on whatever where clause you print 
the report for.

Hope that made sense!

Karen

I still haven’t been able to fix some of the R:Base upgrade differences that 
negated a few of my previous entries/variables that worked before.  It’s been 
decades since I did any database/form/report/table designing with my database 
except add rows using my previous forms and print existing reports.

I have R:Base Extreme 9 (C:\RBTI\RBG95_32\RBG95_32.exe).  I have one report 
that I frequently use and just change the ‘where’ clauses to suit each report.  
I cannot find a way in this R:Base for the report to simply count the total of 
each main entry (i.e., ‘title’) SPECIFIC to EACH REPORT’s ‘where’ clause that I 
give the report when I ask it to print.  The only way I’ve managed to get the 
count is to go to DESIGN, variables and CHANGE the variable to the same ‘where’ 
clause as the particular report I’m printing.  But it would be so much easier 
if I could just add a variable where R:Base can just use the where clause I 
give it each time I print the report.  (Hope that makes sense).

If anyone knows how I could do this, I would really appreciate it.  Thank you.

Cathy
