Maybe your colleague could add a field to the raw data--put in some formula that
does the equivalent of the data|filter. (Returns Show/Hide or True/False or...)

Then use that as a page field in the pivottable
Then they could use that to show/hide the data they want in the pivottable.

A colleague has Autofiltered a spreadsheet and then wishes to create a Pivot
Table based on the filtered data. He can create the PT fine, but ALL data is
used, not just filtered.
Is there a way around this, or a better solution?

Any assistance gratefully accepted and TIA,
Amanda
