    I am not getting sound from the videos. I have checked all the settings and spent several hours searching the Internet to no avail.

    Has anyone else had this problem?

    Is there anyway to get the Grand Total to be broken out in the same fashion as the items above it?  For instance, if you have in column 1, widget a, widget b, and have their sales by month in column 2, I'd like to see the grand total also be by month, for widget a & b combined.

    I can't get anything other than a single line for the grand total, rather than the same format as the data above.

    Widget A       Month    Sales
                        Jan        100
                        Feb        200
    Widget B 
                        Jan        150
                        Feb        250
    Grand total - here I would also like to have Jan, Feb.
                        Jan        250
                        Feb        450
