    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.

  • Hi Jeff

    I got your point..here is my MDX query

    select

    [Measures].[Total Days Cash on Hand] ON ROWS,

    LastPeriods

    (5,[Time].[Fiscal].[Fiscal Year].&[2009].&[2]) ON COLUMNS

    FROM

    MyCube

    bu using this i got the result for last five quarters..then i need to create a calculated memeber on the values of last 5th and 4th qtrs...how to do this..

  • I've never used MDX queries... that's why I pointed out a traditional cross-tab.
