Current record of total related records

[willbelair]

HI, I am trying to display the number of current record in total related records. For example, I have table Client and table Contact. In the layout Client I have portal Contact. Because the Contact table has too many fields, so on the portal I display only one record at a time. I need to show the total number of contact for the client, and also the current record is the 1, or 2 or 3 ... of the total contacts. So, I guess I need to have 2 fields in the Client table , one is current and the other is total. I tried to use function Count, but it does not work at all,maybe because I have not learnt enough. Could someone please help me out.

Thank you

totalContacts=count (clientContacts::ID)

Current contact will depend on sort order and how you are displaying them. Little more tricky.
