[Summary-Talk] Best way to get directory totals?

[Rick Crelia <rick.crelia@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

We're a pretty new user of Summary (SP, v2.5.2) and one of my
customers wants to know how to easily get a total of hits/page views
for a given directory. For example, he wants to find out the total
number of hits for /somedir/somesubdir/foo/*.

From the looks of it, he can do this by pulling down the report as
a spreadsheet with just the target directory as the sole search
term for a report, and then do my own summing in the relevant
column(s). However, it seems like a lot of extra effort just to
get cumulative data for a given directory.

I looked through the manual and didn't see anything illustrating how
to do this, but thought maybe the use of a Content Group in the
sub-report might do it. But that sort of limits us to a few totals
(due to the limited number of content groups per report).

Am I missing something?
