Hi GTVT06
I changed the following code and it works, but it gets hung up on this code
now...

Code Change - added Column ("C22")
ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Add(SourceType:=xlDatab ase, SourceData:= _
* * * * "'HP Defective Receipts in SPL ma'!R1C22:R" & LastRow &
"C22").CreatePivotTable _
* * * * TableDestination:=Sheets("Receiving TAT").Range("A1"),
TableName:="RTAT"

New Error on code: (Unable to get the Pivottable property of the Worksheet
class)
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("RTAT").SmallGrid = False

Is the pivot table name "PivotTable1" every time you run this code? or
is the name changing each time? i.e. PivotTable1, PivotTable2,
PivotTable3- Hide quoted text -

ok, the (Pivot Table name not valid) error would be because it's
looking for "PivotTable1" each time, and since the name is changing
each time PivotTable1 no longer exist so it's an invalid name. you may
want to give the Pivot Table a unique name in the macro so each time
it's ran, the name stays the same.- Hide quoted text -

Try to clear contents on the table before reusing it... Try replacing
the code you just posted with this code.

* * Sheets("Screening TAT").PivotTables("RTAT").PivotSelect "",
xlDataAndLabel, True
* * Selection.ClearContents
* * ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Add(SourceType:=xlDatab ase,
SourceData:= _
* * * * "'HP Defective Receipts in SPL ma'!R1C22:R" &
LastRow).CreatePivotTable _
* * * * TableDestination:=Sheets("Screening TAT").Range("A1") _
* * * * , TableName:="RTAT"- Hide quoted text -

Oh, I believe that's because if the pivot table wasn't pre-existing
yet, it wont have any contents to clear. try this modified version and
let me know if it works.
