Showing total price in attributes drop-down

Hi all,

I wonder if anyone can help? I've looked and not found an answer on the forum or help, although the question was asked a few years back.
**
Example:**
The store offers Drill bits for sale. They are available in different sizes, which changes the price. The base price is set for the cheapest size drill bit, and using product attributes the difference in price is listed for the larger bits. Once a customer adds the relevant size drill bit to their basket the total price is correctly calculated. However, the store owner is concerned that due to the average age of their customers (50+) they will be confused by the prices in the attributes drop down and have asked me to get the total price to display there instead.

I've been trying to figure out how to do this but can't seem to locate the correct part of the code to make the relevant changes. Has anyone else done this, or is it just not possible with Zen Cart?

Version: v1.3.9h

Thanks in advance

Kas,
leave the product price blank and select the field price by attribute in the catalog, calalog/product section of the admin panel..

In attribute controller for each attribute delete the + from the Price section.
Then in the attribute price according to the correct price

Oh boy, what a simple answer! Do I feel dumb now! :) Thanks for that... I guess it's a 'I can't see the woods for the trees' scenario!!
