Showing totals in data table in a line chart
 
I'm trying to show the totals of two data series in a line chart. Everytime I
inlude the cells in the data range the total cells are plotted in on the
chart. Is there a way to dispaly the sum of the cells and not plot the totals
on the chart?

Hi,

How do you want to display the total?

1. Don't include the totals in the range you select to plot, then add a
textbox and enter the total. To make the textbox dynamic - select the chart
area and type = and click on the cell where the total is. Press Enter. Move
the textbox whereever you want it.
