How can I create a calculated field that i can include on my report that shows the row 'NUMBERS', like in MS EXCEL?

A running series.

thx,

Do you mean something like what the rownumber function does? http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms159225(v=sql.90).aspx

thanks for the response

the 'RowNumber(scope)' does not work. I received an error message; 'Has a scope parameter that is not valid for an aggregate function'

I tried using the '=CountRows()' function but all I get is number a number (1), on every record.

thx,

you need to give your actual scope which is your datasetname or containername or groupname not the text "scope" inside

this is the expression I used '=RowNumber("DataSet1")'from the Link you provided.

It works as a total in a text box.

I get the error message when I try to add the NEW calcualted field 'RecordNumber', to my table. Each record should be numbered on my Report.

thx,
