View 9 RepliesI'm looking for a way to refresh my pivotchart and update my pivot table data every time that a certain macro runs. I could just delete it and make a new one everytime but that runs in to the problem of defining a new sheet every time. Is there a simple way to do this. say I my pivot chart is on "Sheet 7" and it there is only one pivot chart in the workbook and my source sheet is on "Combined Data". and at the moment the data range is "A1:N435" and say next time I run my macro the data range will add 20 rows of data and the next 25.

My problem is that when I loop through all the PivotItems in a filter list in order to make all visible, there are PivotItem names that aren't in the drop down menu and so the code breaks.
Do I need to refresh the pivot table slightly differently than just using .refresh?
I've referenced a few threads this one in particular [Solved] Pivot Tables : Refresh on protected sheet
I've tried the example given in the link and it still does not work. I want to protect the sheets that contain pivot tables, but still be able to refresh them. When I try I get an error. I've tried this a few ways.
My first attempt was to protect the sheets using allowuserinterfaceonly at a workbook open event. This caused warnings as soon as the workbook was opened. Then I tried Dave's suggestion and I get a runtime error 1004: Cannot edit PivotTable on protected sheet.
I've got a workbook with a several pivot tables. For convenience, I've deleted the pivot table source and left the pivots "self-standing". Problem is now when I try to refresh the workbook, I get a "Reference is not valid" error which prevents the workbook from updating.

Cell B2 is not part of the pivot table.
Its been ages since I used a pivot table and I cant remember much.
I did one last week - lets pretend on the range A1, B100.
Ive since added some extra info into the range and it now goes from A1, B110.
I go to my pivot table and hit "!" and it updates. How can I be certain its included everything from my range? Is there a way I can check the pivot table to see where the range is from?
Trying to create a basic pivot table from a CSV file for our users. What I've done in the past is open my CSV and then take the option Insert > Pivot Table to create the pivot table from the open CSV/worksheet. My question here is .... how can I save this .XLS and refresh the CSV data within? Or do I need to use an external data source? I don't want to have to use any drivers. I'd love to be able to just point to a CSV or TXT file on our server and that be that.
For something else I have used Web Query strings to point to .php scripts that send back data in XML format. Is this an option?
Again, the goal is for me to create a pivot table and just have our user's open it up and have current/refreshed data within. We can run jobs overnight or on-demand that update the data source.
I have a workbook containing many pivot tables. When I create a pivot table everything works fine. When I close the workbook, reopen it, and refresh the pivot table, the new data will appear at the bottom of the table instead of being inserted in the proper row in the table. Since the table is no longer in sequential order my VLOOKUP functions don't work properly. What do I need to do to get the already established pivot table to refresh properly?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have some code that runs and loops through each pivot table to refresh it; however, I remmed out the code so that it only loops once - telling it to refresh the first pivot; the thing I'm confused about is that after the code runs, it appears to have refreshed all my pivots. I think it's also important to note the each pivot table is linked to the same data source. (an external ds)
Maybe when this is the case, refresh will always refresh all?
Named my data range using this formula:
=OFFSET(Sheet1!$A$1,0,0,COUNTA(Sheet1!$A:$A),COUNTA(Sheet1!$1:$1))
I was hoping that my pivot table would refresh with the new data that I added on sheet 1 but it is not working and yes I have refreshed my pivot table. The new data is not capturing.
Is this the correct formula for Mac Excel 2011?
I have a pivot table in the first sheet which includes the field "Date" as a column label.
In the remaining sheets, except for one, there are pivot tables based on the same underlying dataset which also include the field "Date" as a column label.
I would like to adjust the selection (i.e., exclude some dates) from the column label in the first sheet and see if it is possible to make the same adjustments automatically to the pivot tables in the remaining sheets as well.
note that the field "Date" is used as a Column label, i.e., it is not a Report filter.
I have a single workbook with multiple worksheets. Each worksheet has a different pivot table displaying a different view of the data. Each pivot table uses the same source data at worksheet1.
Each week i add new data to the end of the source data, which means that I need change the source data reference separately in each pivot table to update each pivot table view to include the new data. This is laborious as there are quite a few pivot tables.
Was wondering if there is some way of changing the pivot table source data reference on all pivot tables at the same time.
I currently have several pivot table that's linked to a single pivot table(let's call it X) in the same workbook. I'm doing this to limit the file size because the data in X comes from a text file that has millions of lines. However, it's such a pain every time I need to update the tables because simply clicking "refresh" does not update those tables that are linked to X with new data. I would have to instruct the wizard in every linked table to point to X every time. I'm trying to write a small program to re-point to X for each of those other pivot tables whenever i refresh data. However, after trying to record the steps to do this I'm still unable to run these

I have 12 months worth of data in twelve separate workbooks each with a pivot table, I have copy/moved the pivot table tab from each into one workbook so now I have a workbook that consists of 12 tabs each with a pivot table. What I would like to be able to do is create a summary table with the full years data; where I am running into problems is that each months table has slightly different row and column counts and labels making any formula like =sum([sheet 1 cell a1]+[sheet 2 cell a1]) problematic.

I've been able to (with this help of this site) to use VBA to hide pivot items on all of these sheets using a list on a user form. Hide/Show Pivot Table Field Items. Hide Pivot Table Fields Pivot Items by Criteria
I now need to be able to show all the pivot items on only 3 of the 4 pivot tables, with the 4th pivot table being left untouched. For ease assume that my sheets are sheet1, sheet2, sheet3, and sheet4. The tables I wish to update are on sheet2, sheet3 and sheet4. The pivot table on each sheet is called "PivotTable4" and the pivot item is called "Business". The pivot item contains 12 business names (Business1, Business2 etc etc)
Is there an easy way of doing this? I've spent the day looking through the internet and various "Dummies" books but with little success, I fear that I'm obviously below even Dummy level

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an issue with printing a worksheet with a pivot table. When refreshing the table, depending on the filter choices, the table length with expand and contract. When the pivot table contracts, it leaves a light blue shaded area. If you try to print the worksheet it includes the blue section. Is there a print macro that can be written that will only print the sections with values or perhaps a print setting that would exclude the shaded area?

I did have a reinstall of Office last week but can't see how that would have impacted this. Otherwise, I only use the pivot table command to 'refresh all'.
I know very little about them and didn't create this workbook.
I do add entries to the source data and have tried to change source data but I get Reference is not valid.
When I run pivot tables, the row label descriptions are only displayed at the highest level for each category. As displayed below the highest level on the row label is MOB and is only detailed in the first row. I need for each of the different row label levels to display the data so there are no blank cells.

All I want to do is write some vba script that inserts a pivot table based on all of the data in my current workbook.
Therefore I want something incredibly simple if it exists like:
ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Create(SourceData:= ActiveWorksheet.Select.AllData)
ie the vba code that just takes the data you've got in your current worksheet and creates a pivot table.
I have four sheets with a lot of pivot tables on each and my problem is that whenever I hit Refresh the formatting of the pivot tables is always changing. It seems that this is something of an issue in Excel 2010 and that they only way to truly get around it is to re-format the pivot tables upon refresh with VBA code.
Any resource or thread I can use to learn the commands to format the pivot tables?
I am getting better with VBA code but seems to always get stuck on trying new things because I do not know the commands.
I'm trying to sync a common field in two different pivot tables.
I have 2 pivot tables on a single worksheet.
Each table has its own data source - 2 different databases (had to set it up that way to present all the data requested).
The 2 data sources have one column of data in common. This column is called Projects and all project names are the same in both databases.
BUT...
Pivot Table 1: Projects is in the ROW area (multi-select dropdown)
Pivot Table 2: Projects is in the PAGE area (single select drop-down)
I would like to link the Projects data items so that when I select a project name in the Combo box, the same project name would seamlessly be selected in both tables.
Each table would populate with its own data based on the project selected.
Basically, I'd like to use the method illustrated in this Flash file:
[url]
This method would have worked beautifully if it weren't for this reason:
Table 1: Project data is in the PAGE field
(single selection)
Table 2: Project data is in the ROW field (multi-selection)
If the Projects data was in the PAGE field in both tables, my code would look like this:
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("Table 1").PivotFields("Project").CurrentPage = _ActiveSheet.Range("X1").Value
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("Table 2").PivotFields("Project").CurrentPage = _ActiveSheet.Range("X1").Value
But no, because the ROW field is a multi-select one, I get this kind of
I have several pivot tables that need to be re-linked to an Access database (really change the link to a different month's data). Currently, I do this manually, but I was hoping to write a macro to do this. Data is saved by month so I can't just create a "current" file as to not change the links each time. I can only get code to work for the refresh portion.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have used the macro recorder to create a macro that creates a pivot table from data located on another workbook.
with this said i have two questions.
How can i make it so that the workbook containing the data for the pivot tabel does not need to be open?
the second question is why am i gettign stuck with a macro that sticks right here:
I am working with VBA to create a pivot table, and have done just fine so far. However, I need to create a two buttons that will run the following macros: 1. A macro that will remove the selected header (either row or column) from the pivot table.
2. A macro that will put the removed header back into the pivot table.
I need to be able to click on the header (whether its the row or column header) and then press the button to remove it from the table. The second button should then add that header back into the table. My code for creating the table is fine, I just need to work out the buttons. Below is what I have so far. I was think that if I had variable for the header name it would be able to tell which header to remove (so I used Set iField = ActiveCell.Value), I also tried ActiveCell.Text. All I need to do is put the text in the selected field into the PivotFields range to make it hidden. However, I keep getting an error (Compile Error: Object Required) on the line Set iField = ActiveCell.Value. Below is my current code.
Sub PivotTable()
ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Add(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:= _

I wonder if it is possible to make calculations between two pivot tables which have the same number of columns and rows and put the outcomes in a third pivot. For example Pivot 1 contains revenue data, Pivot 2 contains cost data and Pivot 3 provides the calculated outcome of revenues minus costs.
