Re: Help!! Totalling Results from "Count" function



First, create a totals query that is similar to your main report's query. I
expect you would group by department. This query should display the results
you want in your report footer.

Then create a report (subreport) based on your query. You can then add this
"totals" report as a subreport in your main report.
