I need to format a count in a pivot table
There is no in-built facility to count distinct values in pivot tables.
You would have to add a new column to your underlying data.
In the example you've given wouldn't therefore every 'unique' count be
1? Because if there are 1, you want to show 1 and if there *is* only 1
you want to show 1.
In this case if you really want to show this single count add a column
of 1's to your underlying data and add to the data section of the pivot
and choose MIN.
Or have I misunderstood?
