You're welcome.
As a side note about this "Average" - this is not strictly a 'monthly'
average as such... instead, it's a 'column' average.
This only matters if, e.g. your secondary-key is 'date', secondary subtotal
is 'monthly', and expect Jan-Dec transactions.
If there is 1 month missing i.e. transactions on every month except in
November, then the subtotal-table will have 11 columns, and the average
will be (Jan->Dec total) / 11.
This is a limitation of the averaging function which divides total by
number of columns, and is rather difficult, or very limiting, to try
generate a true monthly average (i.e. I'm not keen of trying this).
