| **AddTotal** | Identify the break total type and optional source/target fields and condition. |
| //target// | The label of a field that the total result will be stored into. |
| //source// | The label of a field that the total result will be calculated from. |
| //type// | A byte that identifies the total type defined for the break. A count type = 1, average type = 2, sum type = 3. |
| //reset// | A byte that specifies whether or not the target variable is reset on each break detected. A value of 1 specifies a reset, zero will not reset the target value. |
| //condition// | A valid expression that will force a reset when evaluated to TRUE. |

The **AddTotal **method is an overloaded method that caluculates three types of conditional or unconditional totaling.

**Implementation: **The **AddTotal** method is called after each break and level is added, directly following the AddResetField method. In the template interface, it is only active when totaling is added to the break.

**Example:**

**  BreakMgr.Init()**

**  BreakMgr.AddBreak()**

**  BreakMgr.AddLevel() ****!Count Break**

**  BreakMgr.AddResetField(PEO:Gender)**

**  BreakMgr.****AddTotal(CountValue,1)**

**  BreakMgr.AddBreak()**

**  BreakMgr.AddLevel() ****!SumBreak**

**  BreakMgr.AddResetField(PEO:Gender)**

**  BreakMgr.****AddTotal(SumValue,SourceToTotal,eBreakTotalSum,1)**

**  BreakMgr.AddBreak()**

**  BreakMgr.AddLevel() ****!ConditionalAverage**

**  BreakMgr.AddResetField(PEO:Gender)**

**  BreakMgr.****AddTotal(AverageValue,SourceToAverage,eBreakTotalAve,0,'PEO:Gender = ''M''')**
