Hi

Pressing the Refresh button will refresh the data, provided that the range
of source data includes the rows you have just added.

Set up a Dynamic range for your data, rather than a fixed range. For more
help on setting dynamic ranges take a look at
http://www.contextures.com/xlNames01.html#Dynamic

Once you have your range named, go back to the PT wizard and insert your
named range e.g. =mydata in place of the fixed range you have there.

You will also find heaps more help on Pivot Tables at Debra's site.

Hey all, I am new to pivot tables...

I have a spreadsheet with a number of worksheets and all of them are
pivot tables presenting data in a different way etc. and one of the
worksheets is the raw data the pivot is based on.

I have added a number of new records and now I would like to refresh
data within those pivot tables, just pressing the refresh option does
not do it, I am thinking since I am not connected to any source but
everything is being done "locally so to speak" I am updating the
currect excel spreadsheet that has to be a more complex way than that.

Anyway I can't quite work it ou.

Can somebody help me please

Thanks:)
