I need help with writing a formula. Making a shipping label and I need a formula that will read Box 1 of 5, Box 2 of 5, Box 3 of 5 and so on. Just not sure how this is done.
 
Any suggestions?

If the label is the same size as the page, then you can use the page numbering (special fields).  Otherwise, short of having a stored procedure that counts all the 'labels' and passes that to CR, I am not sure.

Create a RunningTotal (RT1)
select:
Field to summarize -> database_field_box
Type of summary -> count
Evaluate -> for each record
Reset -> Never
----
Create a formula (F1)
Whileprintingrecords;
Stringvar sss;
sss := totext(RT1)+"Of"+totext(Count({database_field_box}));
sss;
---
Now place F1 in the detail section.. you should be good!
