All yhe clients you enter in a form are saved to a table. Create a query
based on this table. Base your report on the query. To get the total of
clients, enter this expression in a blank field in your query:
TotalClient = 1
Include the filed TotalClient in your report as the first field in each
record. The TotalClient field will then number all your records and the last
record will be the total clients.

Good comment on basing your report on the table. However:
TotalClient = 1
won't work as a new column in a query.
TotalClient: 1
will work but why use it. In a report footer, you can use a text box with a
control source of:
=Count(*)
to count the number of records in a report.

It will not "number all your records" unless you choose Running Sum Over All
for the text box in which you display it, will it, now?

Im am very sure that Steve is triggered by ' OP's statement: 'It's my first
time using the program'
So of course he is eager trying to 'help' ... mentioning his fee will come
afterwards
but alas the help is not very good...
