[AccessD] Record Count From Group Header

A way I know of to count the records in a Group is to put a hidden text box on the detail line.
 
   Name: txtCount
   ControlName: =1
   RunningSum: Over Group
 
Then the count per group (txtCount) is available in each group footer.  
 
The only way I found to put all the group counts into the *Report* footer is by using a subreport in the Report Footer which has a Totals query as its Recordsource.

Dear List:
 
 
Is there a way to extract the record count from a group header and put it into a control in the report footer?  =Me.Count gives me the count of the detail records.  =[Count] gives me the count of detail records.  [GroupHeader3].[Count] gives me #Name?.
 
I believe I've seen this syntax generated by the wizard but can't duplicate it.
