The adding of sequential numbers to a report is the answer to one of the questions I have received in the past. I have made the assumption that if one person asks the question then it is likely others also wish to know the answer to the question.
Question
How do I get serial line numbers to appear on a report in Access?
Answer
To add serial (sequential) numbers for a report:
Add an unbound text box to the design section of the report;
Then, open the text box properties (right click and select properties);
Set the following under the ‘Data’ tab:
Control source '=1'
Running Sum = 'Over Group’ if you wish to count the records in each group
OR
Running Sum = 'Over All' if you wish to display consecutive numbers for all the records.
