Hi

I have a formula to calculate percentages of completed applications
per month :

=(Count([Compltdt]) )/(Count([Appln Id]) In ([Policy Input Date])*100

This is shown horizontally on a cross tab. They actually want culmulative percentages per month so if it was:
          COMPLETED
      Jan   Feb   March   Apr
INPUT
Jan  25%   10%   15%     10%
Feb  15%   10%   12%     5%

What I need is:

     Jan   Feb    March  Apr
INPUT
Jan   25%    35%   50%     60%
Feb   15%   25%    37%     42%

I have tried using runningsum to be reset at the input date
The forumula I have written is:
=RunningSum(Percentage(Count([Compltdt]) )/(Count([Appln Id]) In ([Policy Input Date]);[Policy Input  Date))*100

Any suggestions gratefully received!
