Thanks. I will give this a try.

To all, the Pivot table autoformat functionality in Excel 2003 would do what
I'm discussing. For example, the autoformat would display "Expenses" versus
"Sum of Expenses". There was 20 autoformats available in addition to Classic
and None.

This is what I'm looking for. My users don't need to see "Sum of". That's
obvious to them. These can be manually removed, but there should be a global
functionality that was in Excel 2003.

Hi Russ

I am totally unaware of any in built function in XL2003 that would do this,
and there is no such function in XL2007.
However, the following code will achieve what you want.

Sub ChangePTName()
Dim pt As PivotTable, pf As PivotField, ws As Worksheet, i As Long
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set ws = ActiveSheet
For i = 1 To ws.PivotTables.Count
Set pt = ws.PivotTables(i)
pt.ManualUpdate = True
For Each pf In pt.DataFields
If pf.Function = xlSum Then
If Left(pf.Caption, 6) = "Sum of" Then
pf.Caption = Right(pf.Caption, Len(pf.Caption) - 6)
End If
End If
Next
pt.ManualUpdate = False
Next i
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Copy the Code above
Alt+F11 to invoke the VB Editor
InsertModule
Paste code into white pane that appears
Alt+F11 to return to Excel

To use
Select sheet containing the PT's
Alt+F8 to bring up Macros
Highlight ChangePTName
Run

In 2003, we had a formatting option that would globally remove €œSum Of€�
from
the pivot table values. I like that feature. However, I cant seem to
find
the same thing in 2007. I can manually change them, but thats no fun,
especially if I have a bunch of values.

Does anyone have solution to this question?

Thanks
