re: Putting totals in for a field that is a calculated one

Here is a work-around to do totals (and subtotals when using Group By options in a standard list view with calculated fields.

Let's say we have a field called CALCULATED HOURS that is calculated as Round((([END TIME] - [START TIME])*24),1) (this gives the decimal notation of the total time rounded to the closest 10th).

Create a regular number field (not calculated) called HOURS.

Using Sharepoint Designer, create a workflow for your list that runs when list items are created and when list items are changed.

The workflow will have a single step. Leave the condition field blank.

In the action section, choose "Set field in the current item".

Click on the word "field" and choose HOURS.

Click on the word "value" and then click on "fx" to do a lookup.

Choose "current item" for the source.

Choose "CALCULATED HOURS" for the field.

Click Finish

Now whenever someone creates or modifies a list item the non-calculated field will automatically be updated with the data from the calculated field.

Now you can display the non-calculated field in your standard list views, total by it, etc.

Hope that saves people the time it took me to figure it out! ;-)
