Eliminating a row

Question

Hi All -
I am trying to do the following.
I have a set of record with amount type with associated amounts. At the end of each account, I am trying to get the total, Like below:
amount_type      amounts      Amount_type_id      Year
Vacation     200     1     2001
Vacation     300      1     2002
Total Vacation      500     1     
Education     1000     2     2001
Education     3000     2     2002
Total Education      4000     2     
just a kind of query I am using to get my result set is as follows:
SELECT NVL(amount_type, concat('Total ', amount_type)) as amount_type,
amounts,
amount_type_id, year,
From
table
group by grouping sets....
The problem is when I am doing this, i am getting an extra row with the following value
Total 0 0 0 0
How do I eliminate the above row?

How do I eliminate the above row?I don't get get any row like that when I use GROUP BY GROUPING SETS. Just do something like I do.
You may rightly say, "Well, what do you do? It doesn't help any to say that without being specific."
Anyone reading your question may rightly say the same.
Post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements) that produce the results you posted, and also post your complete query. Simplify as much as possible.
