Default Export post count - 10-10-2005 , 07:55 AM






Hello!

I've gotten very good advice before from this group so here I go again.

On a daily basis I export around 500 entries (8 fields) to a txt file. I
would like the first kolumn to express the entry count. Row 1 should say
(1);row 2 -(2) and so on.

I don't know where to start. I recently took over the database and I am
fumbeling in the dark here.

Thank you for your time.

create a new calculation field, EntryCount, calculation, number result:

Get(RecordNumber)

And export it with the other fields
