Pie Chart Percentage Problem

[LorraineS]

I have a pie chart and I display the percent for the pie labels. However, if you add up all the percent values, the total is 101% (> 100%).

Is this a known problem? Is there any solution for this?

This sounds like a rounding issue. Increase the decimal precision and take the sum again. If the issue still remains after adding several more decimal places, there may be a more serious issue.

I increased the decimal precision as suggested. Now the sum is 100.01%. I need to guarantee 100% when adding them up. Any way to do this?

None that I can think of offhand.
