Default Pivot Table Sorting

To sort on a data field, put the cursor on one of the enties in the Row area
(Company Name), right click, choose Field Settings, choose Advanced, choose
Ascending, and then choose the Data item you would like to sort (i.e. USD
value).

Good luck

Hi everyone,

I have a pretty big pivot table that I want to
sort per values in the columns and I have tried several
times to sort with the function sort in the pivot table
menu but it never seems right and I can't get the sorting
I need. Like if I had a list of company names (in the ROW
section of my pivot) with their total stock value (in the
DATA section)and I would have like the currency in the ROW
section. Now if I would want to sort my pivot table in a
descending order for the US dollar value in my table, what
would I do ???
