I am trying to have Excel carry values from non-subtotaled cloumns to show up
on the subtotal row.
 
I am trying to show the value of the data on the row above the subtotal line.
Basically the information used to separate the various lines of data. More
than the one reference used to differentiate the data.
 
There's nothing built in that will show additional data in the subtotal
row. You could manually or programmatically add a formula to the
subtotal row, referencing the cell above.
 
How did you get the subtotals?

If you got them via data|subtotal, then you have outlining symbols to the left.

Hide all those detail rows--leaving only the subtotals.

Select those cells you want to add the info to.
But then Edit|goto|special|visible cells only

Say the cell that's active is now B12
type this formula
=b11
(the cell right above)
and hit ctrl-enter to fill all the selected cells with a similar formula.

But you still may want to take a look at that pivottable stuff. It might be
what you want and after an hour or two, you'll never use Data|subtotals again
<vbg>.
