AS 2005, SP1:
I have a dimension with 15 members which I can filter the Top N members by measure.
What I would like to do is append an additional Row as a group or aggreagate the reads "Other" that reflects the remaining measure value. For example,
Top 5 Widgets
W5 5000
W9 4000
W2 3000
W11 2000
W7 1000
+Other 6000
The "Other" Row would sum the remaining 10 widgets so the user could see 100% of the totals.
I can do the Top N but have no idea how to start this one. Thanks in advance for your help.

Reed Jacobson wrote up the standard solution to this problem on his blog recently:

In AS2K this could be optimised, and I wrote up how on my blog here:

... however, you'd need to test whether this was still a good idea in AS2005 - I think it might actually harm performance.
HTH,
