Not to start over again Dixie, but you could follow the steps that have been
laid out for you in the other thread - measuring volume.
I'm going to lay on you the same thing I did there;
This is found in Help under the following Title;
Calculating Composite Volumes
Use the Composite method to calculate volumes both for a defined stratum and
parcels within the area of that stratum. For more information about the
Composite method, see Using the Composite Method.

Look up those four Blue Underlined Titles, and that should get you started
with understanding what you're attempting to handle - all by yourself.
