Adding calculations to OLAP grids

Calculated members enable you to perform specific calculations on OLAP
data and to display the results in rows or columns that are added to the OLAP
grid. You can create a quick calculation, such as a Variance member
calculated by subtracting Budget from Sales. Or you can use functions to
perform complex Statistical Analysis or Time Series calculations.

Search the online help for "Adding calculated members" in the "Using the
