hi

I am using Crystal v 8.5 the problem I have is with a legend for a pie chart. In this particular case there is a negative number and the totals appear in the legend like this

-0.71 - which is correct
100.71 - which is correct
------
101.42 - which is incorrect and should say 100.00

has anybody got any ideas to get around this issue?

many thanks for any help!!

It would suggest that your data is suspect, as you should not be able to get a -(ve) number expressed in a pie chart.

Either correct data or Filter out Negative numbers before charting.
