Default Pivot chart formats



"Debra Dalgleish" wrote:

You can record a macro as you format the pivot chart.
Then, assuming the chart is on a chart sheet --
Right-click on the chart sheet tab, and choose View Code
From the dropdown list at the top left, choose Chart
From the dropdown list at the top right, choose Calculate
Paste your code where the cursor is flashing, e.g.:

Private Sub Chart_Calculate()
With ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(3).Interior
.ColorIndex = 37
.Pattern = xlSolid
End With

End Sub

You may have to modify it a bit, but that should help you get started.
