How do I access the "field button's dropdown list"? Thanks.

In the field button's dropdown list of items, you could unselect the
items that are grouped in the calculated item.

That worked well. Only probelm is that I know have some double counting in
my totals at the bottom of the table. Can I change the formulas that drive
the totals so that I can back out the double counting that I get by combining
the two products as described earliet. Thank you again.

You can create a calculated item that totals other items. For example:

Select a cell that contains the name of a product/service
On the PivotTable toolbar, choose PivotTableFormulasCalculated Item
Type a name for the formula, e.g. Group AB
In the Formula box, type and equal sign
In the list of items, double-click the first product that you want to add
Type a plus sign
In the list of items, double-click the second product that you want to add
Click OK

I have a pivot table where the "rows" are names of different
products/services. The data includes sales and expenses associated w/ the
products/services. If I wanted the pivot table to combine the data from two
of the products/services is that possible (i.e., I can create a new row of
the pivot table that shows the combined data for Product A + Product B)?
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
