Hi Hsm,

Correct me if i did n't got your problrm in a right way

but can try to use a pivot table and in the presentation tab of pivot properties select Partial sum which gives you a grand total of all of your total's .

thanks a lot

Hi Hsm,

You can try the grand total of five expression in this way also

Try to label your 1st expression as Sum1 2nd as Sum2 .....5th as Sum5.

and now write a new expression as Sum _Total=Sum(Sum1+Sum2+...+Sum5);

now you have a expression of grand total of 5 sum's  you can use it

thanks a lot

Hi,

It does not work for me for some reason.

I am in the Chart Properites/Expressions. I label the first sum as IP, the second sum as OP. I only did 2 as a test.

I added a total sum. the label is total sum. The definition is =sum(ip + op)

Total mode is expression total

I do not know what I am doing wrong.

Thanks.

Hi,

[IP] and [OP] should be the lables of your expressions, so you can use the expression [IP]+[OP]
