I have four pivot views, D Rank, S Rank, B Rank and O Rank. I know
how to add an items as illustrated below below, however removing it
errors when it's actually not there...how do I avoid this is my
question?

ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Data Completeness Rank"


' if the Pivot field is not showing I error out just below
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields ("S
Rank").Orientation _
= xlHidden
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields ("B Rank"). _
Orientation = xlHidden
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields ("O Rank"). _
Orientation = xlHidden


ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").AddDataFiel d
ActiveSheet.PivotTables( _
"PivotTable1").PivotFields("DC Rank"), "Sum of DC Rank",
xlSum
