Counting Items in a Value List

How do I easily count items in a value list? I have been using an IF statement field like: if "item" 1,0. Then I use a summary field to sum the counted items. This makes 2 fields per counted item, which really uses up space. There must be an easier way to do this.

A value list is a list of values, paragraph separated. The number of values in a value list equals the number of paragraphs in the list, plus 1.

PatternCount( ValueListItems( Get( FileName ) ; "valuelistname" ), "par.gif" ) + 1

ValueCount(ValueListItems("MyFileName";"MyValueList")
