Excel Export: How to force SSRS to generate Excel AVG and SUM formulas?

Hi
We are using SSRS 2005 to generate excel sheets. At this point we need to
have Excel SUM and AVG functionality in the exported Excel sheets, but SSRS
puts the resulting number instead of the actual formula. The problem is that
when end user modifies data, the SUM and AVG fields don't update according
to the changes.
Is there any way to force SSRS to generate SUM and AVG formulas instead of
generating the result numbers?
Any help would be appreciated,
MaxHello Max,
This issue is a limitation in the current Reporting Services. Better
formula support is on our wishlist for a future release.
Hope this will be helpful.
Sincerely,
Wei Lu
