creating multi export

When creating a multi export file the file it creates uses the following for 
values:

C;Y(row);X(column);K(value)

If I want to send a line that creates a new position in the file, what 
command would I send from filepro?

For instance, I want to add a total to the next line.
The fifth line is:
C;Y5;X3,K20.00

I want the next line (6) to be the total of everything preceding the fifth 
row. I need to send it at the end of line 5 as a dummy field is holding the 
accumulated total. So Need to send:

C;Y6;X3;K(total)

When the multi export writes the next line it will overwrite the old line 6 
with the new one and then create a line 7 with the new total. This way I 
will always have a total.

Any ideas.
