Error in expression: ')' expected

Hi experts

This formula gives an error:  Sum([Group]={'General','Cars','Bikes','Houses'} [Total Stock])

It says: Error in expression: ')' expected

Where is the problem? Brackets should be fine.

Thanks for any help.

Tom

@TomBond77  like :

Sum({<[Group]={'General','Cars','Bikes','Houses'}>} [Total Stock])

if you have [Total Stock] field if not maye be you want :

Sum({<[Group]={'General','Cars','Bikes','Houses'}>} Total [Stock])
