Counting subforms

[Glenda]

Is there a way to put a counter on a form that displays a
count of the number of subform records associated with
the main record?

Here's an update to the Serialize function by Peter Schroeder:

Good to hear. FWIW, here's the version I came up with today, based off
of your code and Ken's(Getz) suggestion, with a few changes:


Function Serialize(qryname As String, keyname As String, keyvalue) As
Long

Dim rs As Recordset


On Error GoTo Err_Serialize

Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(qryname, dbOpenDynaset, dbReadOnly)

rs.FindFirst Application.BuildCriteria(keyname, rs.Fields(keyname).Type,
keyvalue)

Serialize = Nz(rs.AbsolutePosition, -1) + 1


Err_Serialize:

rs.Close

Set rs = Nothing

End Function
