I have a report and I want to count the # of times a specific header titled
"WW Header" appears within a report.  How can I do that?

Without more information, I can only suggest you print, count, write down
the count.
Reports have Page, Group, and Report Headers. Which one are you referring
to? Can you provide some sample records and layout so we can picture your
issue?

Duane,

    On my report a have a field ("WW") set up as a header.  This field is
populated from a query, so it changes weekly.  I don't want to take a count
from any field in the "Detail" section of the report due to many occurrences
of activities falling within any given WW.  I only want to be able to count
within the report how many "WW"'s are represented on the report.  It is set
up like this:

"WW Header"
      WW
"Details"
     Text box(count)       Date of Activity     Activity

Within the details section, the count isn't important to me as I have
numbered each activity within the WW group.  But one week I might have only 1
WW, and the next I might have 20 WW's, so I want to there to be a Text box
that allows for this # to be displayed.  Hope this clarifies.....

WW is a Group Header. Apparently you want to count the number of group
headers in your report. Create a text box in the group header:
   Name: txtCountWW
   Control Source: =1
   Running Sum: Over All
   Visible: No
Add a text box to your report footer:
   Control Source: =txtCountWW
