I have a subreport with a report footer and a field to print the count of records in the subreport.  It works fine if there are 1+ records, but if there are zero records, the field is blank.  I'd like it to show zero. 
 
In the Format Editor for the field, Number tab, I've tried:
 
1. Style = -1,123
 
2. Style = Custom Style, then Suppress if Zero = unchecked, Show Zero Values as = 0.
 
Any help appreciated.
 
Thx,

you could have a object that has 0 in it, and if the count of records is > 0 to suppress it and show the 'true' count.

Basically have 2 objects and only display 1 at a time based on the count.

Hi lockwelle,
 
Thanks for the post and idea.  I was looking for a solution within the field but this would be a workaround.
