Ive been scrolling through the help files for a while now, looking for anything that will work like an excell "sum" formula. I can get totals & counts in the schedules, but it doesnt look like I can then take and use them in a formula? I can make an integer parameter used as a count, but then there is no way that I can see to get a sum of all those into a formula. Is this correct, or is there an interesting work around that someone is using to solve this problem?

in some other formula based programs such as excell, the equasion =sum(parameter or cell value) will give you the addition of all the cells in that range. The count & totals function of revit schedules works similarly, however I would like to have this "sum" shown in the schedule, not below it. I could acomplish this if there were a formula function similar to "sum"

I understand the theory of what you are trying to accomplish, but becuase revit is pretty complicated, most specifics are needed to give you a specific answer. I do not think you can access the "Count" Information. But I might be able to give you a solution. You can try this to see if it helps. Go to your schedule properties, go to the appearence tab, under the graphics section is a checkbox for Grid in Header/footers/spacer. That will make a grid line. Now mess around with your grouping to accomplish the sum(total) of what you are trying to count.

thank you for giving it a try, it sounds like there is no way to acomplish totals or sums in the schedule cells instead of below the schedule (applying grids will not change the placement of the total) Hopefully it is something that can be taken can of through VSTA.
