Combinations and ??? (In need of assistance)

[nuno742]

I need to find all the combination of 5 elements one from each group of elements, I have X groups each with a different number of elements.

Is there any formula I can use to easily calculate this?

You take one element from each group. You want to end up with 5 elements. So there must be 5 groups. Yet you say that there are X groups. Now do you see why we are confused.
So please post the entire problem, even if it is in another language, and of course please show us your work.
