I want to select a field in a table within ArcGIS Pro and get a quick look at the summation of all the values for all the selected records for that field.  For example, I have a field called "acres".  I want to select various features in the map, open the attribute table, show only the selected records, go to the "acres" field and see a summed up value for the acreage for those selected records.

Thanks for any help.

All you need to do is open the chart properties pane

In Arcmap, you could right click the field header, go to "statistics" and see the "sum".  That functionality seems to be absent from Pro, but I'm hoping not.

I've been able to use the "summarize" gp tool but that creates a table every time I want to do this, which gets very cumbersome after a while.

Hello Royce,

Have you figured how to sum a field in pro?  I need to know because I can't stand creating unnecessary tables to do simple sums.

It's crazy this functionality doesn't exist yet. I hope they add it soon.

Are you sure about that?

And if you have multiple fields to do...
