Conditional format within matrix, depending on subtotal?

Hi there,

I'm having trouble inserting a conditional format to a specific column.

e.g.: Matrix within the rows the "weeks" (1, 2, 3, ... , 52), and in the column a "lastyear revenu", "thisyear revenue" and a difference between them, "delta %", in percent grouped by the stores.
I added a subtotal to it so I get in the latest column the "total lastyear revenue", the "total thisyear revenue" and a difference between them in percent for all stores, "total delta %", for a specific week.

Problem: I want to colour the "delta %" column green when it is greater then the "total delta %" value.

I thougt this would be quite easy, but it really is a pain in the *** because, in the background expression dialog box, I can't refer to the subtotal cells ...

I tried to create a simple report from a cube with Month,Store,Turnover, Previous Year turnover and Delta %. Then I placed on the rows the months and the stores and the values in the colums (that should be the way that you did on the report, am I correct?) and I added the subtotal. Then in the background expression I wrote this:

"=iif(sum(Delta.values) > sum(Delta.values,"Dataset1"),"Green","White")"

Doing this I had the monthly delta background in green when it was higher than the total one.

I hope that I was clear enough!

|||So, am I getting this right:

You simply created another dataset in which you calculate the "total delta %". You then refer in the background expression dialog box to the "total delta %" field of the new dataset?

The dataset is the same, I just refer to the whole dataset in the formula.

So, I have only one dataset (dataset1) and in the % delta for the background I use a formula like:

iif((sum(Fields!CYRevenue.value)-sum(Fields!PYRevenue.value))/sum(fields!PYRevenue.value) > (sum(Fields!CYRevenue.value,"Dataset1")-sum(Fields!PYRevenue.value,"Dataset1"))/sum(fields!PYRevenue.value,"Dataset1"),"Green","White")

Hope it helps!
