Matrix with custom row total - is it possible?

Hell Everybody,
Let's suppose on my report I have a matrix with sales data - regions in
columns, years in rows. Now I need to add an additional total column with,
let's say, total profit.
I tried to accomplish that adding a hidden value. Unfortunately it seems
like I have no control over which total is displayed and which is not.
Theoretically I could place table object next to my matrix, with the same
row and header size but when it comes to pagination results are disastrous.
For any reason renderer breaks my matrix and table at different row.
Sometimes the difference is more than one row, sometimes it does not break
the table but breaks matrix - I am aware of KeepTogether property.
Please advise.
TomaszHi Tomasz,
Thank you for your post.
Have you tried SubTotal column? To add a subtotal to a matrix, add a
subtotal to an individual group within the matrix. Groups do not have
subtotals by default. To add a subtotal to a group, right-click the group
column or row header and then click Subtotal. This will open a new header
for the subtotal. Reporting Services will calculate the subtotal based on
the aggregate in the data cell for the group.
Hope this will be helpful.
Sincerely,
Wei Lu

Thanks for the answer. I have tried this. The better problem definition is
this: I have a matrix with two different measures. I want to show one of
measures with no subtotals while for the other one I want subtotals only. So
the result would look like this:
year/regional sales, USA, Canada, Total Profit
2004, $29334.00, $23232.00, ($6552.00)
2005, $534435.00, $387745.00, $223445.00
Notice that data in the last column has nothing to do with data in other
columns - it is a different measure for which region/year details are not
visible - I want subtotals only. In contrast, for the region/year sales
measure I do NOT want to show subtotals (yearly sales in this case).
Thanks,
Tomasz

Thanks for the update.
How about hide the column you just want Subtotals?
If possible, would you please provide some test data so I could test on my
side?
Hope this will be helpful.
