1. Create a report variable, rnCount. Set it to 0 and set the calculate option to SUM, and reset it at end of report.

2. In the OnExit expression of the customer data group footer, enter the following command: >>_VFP.SetVar(rnCount, rnCount + 1)

3. Use rnCount at the end of the report for the total number of unique customers.



>I now want the Counter Count = 2. Want to count the unique customers. I do have a customer band. I have tried a couple different things but can not get it to work. Tried varying your rnTotal to Count, and _VFP.SetVAr('rnTotal', rnTotal + 1), but no luck so far. Any Advice?

>>>I have the following detail. Want the Total: to be 500,000 - not 1,000,000. I only want to add in the line of credit when the customer changes. Need to do it with variables, not with group footer. (the true report is just a bit more complicated. just trying to get to the basics)
