Question : Adding the record count of one table into another

I would like to capture the result of my query or find another way to calculate it via a form to add it to a table.

I have a follow up table (tblFollowUps) that tracks the date and details of follow-ups to an issue. I would like to count the number of follow-ups to any given issue and record itin a field of the main table (tblComplaints). I am able to write a query that returns the results I am looking for but am at a loss as to how to use it.

SELECT Count(tblFollowups.ComplaintID) AS followupCount
FROM tblComplaints INNER JOIN tblFollowups ON tblComplaints.ComplaintID = tblFollowups.ComplaintID
WHERE (((tblFollowups.ComplaintID)=[Forms]![frmComplaint]![complaintID]));

How do I get the result of this query into my tblComplaint field followUpNumber?

I hope I am missing something obvious.

Nevermind. I found a workaround using DCount().
