>a couple of simple ways:

create a new query, based on your existing query. pull a
field into the QBE grid, and enclose the field name as
Count(FieldName)
go to datasheet view, and you should see one record with
one field that gives you the number of records in the
underlying query.
OR
use a domain aggregate function (in your form or report,
for example), as
DCount("[FieldName]","QueryName")
