I need to display the number of items in a found set (I have disabled the standard toolbar for users) and display the current record number that is being viewed. Basically, recreating what the tool bar does.

 

I tried setting the auto-enter of a filed to be "Get ( RecordNumber )" but this is not working.

 

How do I do this?

 

Thanks!

Hi Jason,

 

You don't need a calculation at all.

 

{{RecordNumber}} of {{FoundCount}}

 

See Insert (in the FM menu) and at the bottom, the record number symbol and 'other' for many new options.  Just place it on the layout.

The field must be an unstored calculation field. Alternatively (and preferably) use:
