Scheduled bar lengths incorrect

When my schedule is created the 'Length of each bar' column is incorrect.  Which options should I be checking to sort this?  I am wanting to work to BS8666:2005.

 

My current job preferences are as follows:

 

CODES - RC Design 'BS 8110'

            - Reinforcement (drawings) 'BS 8666:2005'

REINFORCING BARS - Database 'bar_BS 8666_2005'

BARS/OPTIONS - TOTAL BAR LENGTH - Total'

 

Thanks in advance for any help.

After trying a few things I seem to have sorted this one.  For anyone who may be interested, select the schedule table, right click and select options.  Under the 'Sorting and detailed options' tab there is a check box for 'Total bar length calculated according to the formula given in the code'.  Although this was already checked by default it was not being applied, meaning I had to uncheck and then recheck the option and press ok.  My total lengths are now showing as expected!

 

One minor problem which someone may be able to help with, this method rounds the total to the nearest 25mm.  I would like the option to always round up, is this possible?
