Default create calculated field in pivot table

In xls2003 I have a pivot table that shows years, quarters and months of
data. I want to get a difference from year 2004 month of March, to year 2005
month of March. For each month or quarter or year.

I imagine it's easy but cannot figure it out.

TIA,
Rogers

Perhaps I did not explain my question very well. I am able to create a
basic calculated field. What I am looking for is the syntax on how to create
calculated field for a difference in a data field that has multiple years,
quarter, months. For example the difference between year 2004 March detail
to 2005 March detail.

These are not basic fields. The dates have been grouped, so I don't know
what the correct formula would be.

Thanks,
Rogers
