Hi edver,
You cannot link to an existing pivot table, but you can link to the source
data for an existing pivot table. You can do this in two ways.
1) Create a new sheet in book A, create a pivot table in the new sheet with
data source option "Another pivot table...". Then move the new sheet to book
B - right click the sheet tab to get move or copy menu.
2) Create a new pivot table in book B. Use the external data source option.
Select Excel Sheet as the data provider and follow the prompts.
Both methods end up building a pivot table with the same data source as the
pivot in book A. Method 1 is easier if you do not have named ranges for the
original data.

Can I link Pivot Table 1 in WorkBook B to a pivot that exists in Workbook

Thanks & Cheers
