Total number display in stacked charts
 

I have put together a stacked chart and have each section of it labeled with
the appropriate value for it. I was wondering how to label above each bar on
the chart its total amount of all sections.

for example: bar 1 has a bottom section labeled 1570, middle labeled 185
and top section labeled 83. Without using a text box, how do I have the chart
add the three sections to label 1838 above the bar to display the cumulative
amount?
