[Solved] Weighted Average calculation on total line

Hi,
I want total of a count and weighted calculation of age to be on the total line.
Please find below a query similar to my request.

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
CNT.SEATS
AVE.WHEELBASE
BY CAR
WHERE CAR IN ('TOYOTA', 'BMW', 'AUDI')
ON TABLE SUBTOTAL SUM. SEATS AVE. WHEELBASE
END

RESULT:
CAR CNT WHEELBASE
AUDI 1 105.3
BMW 6 102.7
TOYOTA 1 93.3
TOTAL 8 100.4

Here on the total line I am getting a total of count of seats and average of average of wheelbase. Instead I want to get total of count of seats and weighted average of wheelbase on the total line.
Is there any formula to calculate weighted average on subtotal? or any other way to achieve the requirement.

Please help. Confused

Sladkat,

How do you define your weighted average?
I would use a COMPUTE instead of AVE and do RECOMPUTE instead of a SUBTOTAL.

  COMPUTE AVG/D10.2=SUM.WHEELBASE/CNT.SEATS; AS 'AVE,WHEELBASE'

WHERE CAR IN ('TOYOTA', 'BMW', 'AUDI')
ON TABLE SUMMARIZE
