Looks like you're missing a quotation mark...

How about a label that reads "Grand total" attached to the [paid] field, which is formatted as currency, left justified and has no border showing with a transparent background?

I'm assuming youre doin gthis in either a form or a report - in either case it would work.
Example
?Format("12332.33","Currency")
$12,332.33
