Matrix Calculation - % Growth

I have a report that list customer's 2004 and '05 Sales by month:
Jan Feb Mar ...
Acct 10 2004 $$$ $$$ $$$ ...
2005 $$
% Growth
Acct 11 2004 $$$ $$$ $$$ ...
2005 $$
% Growth
The report currently list all of our accounts in a Matrix report. How can I
calculate the "% Growth"?
The Subtotal function obviouly isn't what I need. Any help is much
appreciated!

hmm *scratching head**untestet*
=(100-(Sum(Fields!Jan 2004.Value)/(Sum(Fields!Jan 2005.Value)/100)))
should be the growth in percent
i.e. 100-(1555)/(1888/100) ~ 17,64%

frank|||I was planning to place this formula in a group footer, but just realized
that I can't add a group footer in a Matrix style report. Is that correct?
Could I use a similar formula in a tabular report?
Thanks
