Default delete selection in pivotcolumn

Hi all,

I am looking for code that clears all selections in a pivotfield. Pivottable compares values of current and previous yyear with budget. My goal is to always have only two years. namely the current and previous.
So far I have created:

sub twoyears()
curyear = Range("curyear").Value ' a cellreference having the value of this year
prevyear = Range("prevyear").Value ' a cellreference with value of 1 less

Sheets("Tur. YTD").Select
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("Tur. YTD").PivotFields("Region").ClearAllFilters
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("Tur. YTD").PivotFields("Region").CurrentPage = "All"
With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("Tur. YTD").PivotFields("Month")
.PivotItems("(blank)").Visible = False
End With

'this is he piece of code where i'm strugging with. when the for each loop has run three times, the column has no values and i get an error.
On Error Resume Next
For Each item In ActiveSheet.PivotTables("Tur. YTD").PivotFields("Year").PivotItems
item.Visible = False
Next
With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("Tur. YTD").PivotFields("Year")
.PivotItems(curyear).Visible = True
.PivotItems(prevyear).Visible = True
.PivotItems("budget").Visible = True
End With

end sub

Of course the 'resume next' solves the problem, but i don't think this is very elegant.
so my question is: what is the easiest way to clear selections in a pivotfieldcolumn

any help is greatly appreciated

greets,
