Hi
Did you click on Refresh whilst the field was removed from the table?
The other thing I have often found to work, is to click on the field name
whilst in the PT, then press refresh.

Thanks Roger/ anyone else

That seemed to have solved the problem for a minute, when using the manual
way but as soon as I drag back pivot field the old items still appear. When
the pivot field is away from the pivot table the old items do not appear in
the list but when dragged back they still do.

Hi

Take a look here to see methods for clearing old items both manually and
programmatically.

longer any cells with the old data the option to select the old data is still
being shown although it contains no info
