Formatting aggregate values
You can format aggregate data values displayed as subtotals, or grand totals as follows:
*Specify the alignment properties.
*Specify a font type, color, or style.
*Specify an available or custom data format to the numeric data values.
To modify alignment options for subtotals or grand total values, select the value, and choose Alignment➛Align Left, Align Right, or Align Center from the context menu.
To modify font properties for subtotals or grand total values, select the value, and choose Format➛Font from the context menu. In Font, use the drop‑down lists to specify the font type, color, and style.
To apply a number format to the subtotals or grand total values, select the value, and choose Format➛Format Data from the context menu. In Number Column Format, select a format from the list of available formats.
