Hi, I have searched most of the fourm but not able to get answer to my question. I have a cross tab retrieved from a query Col1 Col2 col3 .......... Total Row1 30 40 50 Row2 10 30 40 row3 10 15 25 I need to be able to store the First row values (30,40, 50) as the first row values have to be used in calculations of a different column. But Crosstab does not allow the use of variables. I tried to see if adding another measure woudl work. but that does not work also. Parameters also do not work here. Please help... cannot figure out what to use - to access first row values or store the first row values Thanks maithili
