Default Preserving Highlights in Pivots

Jim,

When I choose an auto format for the pivot table, the box that is checked in
the table options for auto format becomes checked again. I need that box to
be unchecked because my tables width changes. I need the tables widths not to
change. Is there a way to lock the column widths?

Have you looked at the auto formats that come with pivot tables. On the
Pivot Tables Toolbar there is an icon that looks like a table with a
lightning bolt. There are a bunch of predefined formats that work great. They
format the entire table quick and easy.

What are the highlight being used for. Are you highlighting exception data or
are you just trying to format the table for presentation purposes???
