Based on a previous formula @NewPallet, every time this occurs I would like to add 1 onto a count value.
 
For example:
 
Head1    NewPallet    Count
1                                    1
2                                    1
3                                    1
4              NewPal          2
5                                    2
6              NewPal          3

shared numbervar iCount;
if @newPallet then
  iCount := Count + 1;
 
iCount
 
this assumes that @newPallet returns true of false, adjust the if statement as needed.

Thank you for the response.
 
My formula is:
 
@iCount
shared numbervar iCount;
if {@NewPallet} = "Start of new pallet"
then  iCount = iCount + 1;
 
@iCountTot
shared numbervar iCount;
iCount
I am getting zero for every record?

it looks ok, did you place the iCount formula on the report...I have forgotten to do that ;)  I am also assuming that {@newPallet} returns that exact verbiage, otherwise it will never increment.
 
you also could move the increment logic to the {@newPallet} formula, and when it determines it is a new pallet to increment the shared variable
