Drillthrough from matrix subtotal value

I've got a matrix as shown below:
c1 c2 Total
r1 1 2 3
r2 4 5 9
Total 5 7 12
I've set the matrix up to drillthrough to a report when I click on the cell values. But I'm having a problem getting the right results when I click on the subtotal values. I'd like to be able to click on (for example) 9 and get a got to the report getting all detail for r2 regarless of the column group. Ditto for rows if I click on a column subtotal. And I'd like to get a complete detail report if I click on 12. However, I'm not sure how to set up the drillthrough on the cell to make this happen. And it doesn't appear to be possible to set up a different drillthrough on the subtotal row/column as you cannot access their properties explicitly.Take a look at the InScope function. It was designed with this scenario in
mind. There should be an example of exactly this usage in the
documentation.
