Karen, I encountered the same problem with the need to count the items on a 
page in the page footer when coming forward from 2.11 to 7.5 and just continued 
to use (Count + 1) my Tranctr variable.

Still do it in 7.6 and use in any new reports that are created. Can not see any 
real reason to change my method even though it is "old school". But I am an old 
"coot" so that gives me the right to be "old school".

At your youthful age, you cannot apply my logic> You must acquire a different 
reason.

George

  This seems trivial, but can't find how to do it.  Converting a DOS report 
that has a count of items on the Page Footer level.   In my 7.6 report I 
located a DBCalc with a count in the PF section, but it does not automatically 
reset as a DBCalc does in regular break sections.   Resetting on a page is not 
an option in the calculations speed menu.    Because of memo fields, I don't 
know how many rows will fit on a page.    Do I have to do it the "old school" 
way of defining a report variable that does a (count + 1) and then have that 
reset under my Page Break options?
