I have two data tables, each representing the monthly spread in one year and the same in the next.
I would like to calculate the % change in values based on my index ('Category Name') so each row value reperesnets the % change from the first year to the next.
Reference the first years table below:
`Category Name` Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Average `Percent Total`

I am trying to create a new table that shows % change for each month for each Category (Salty snacks, Candy, etc.). My plan is take this and create a formattable from it. Thanks!!
