Default 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?

Default Showing totals in data table in a line 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.
