Hi all, here is what im wanting to achieve...

I have a Count() on a few forms which obviously counts all records, what im wanting is to do is display brackets around the count number so rather than looking like this '1' on a form it looks like this '(1)' like most microsoft products discplay counts like Outlook etc.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance
 
Something like this?

="(" & Count([EmpID]) & ")"
