Default View Pivot Table Source data as a Data Table

I see, thank you.
So I'll be effectively creating a new data table from the data generated
from the totals cell. That certainly works.
Many Thanks,
KeLee

Hi

The data will be in the Pivot Cache.
If you double click on the cell which is the the intersect of Grand
total by Rows and Grand Total by columns, a new sheet will open which
shows all of the source data.

Save this.
Create a Table from the data with Insert tabTablemy table has Headers.
In the Options tab, give the Table an appropriate name
On your PT, place cursor with the PT and from the Options TabChange
Data sourcepoint it at your new table name

Hello kind & helpful people,

I am using Excel 2007

I have a pivot table and I want to be able to look at all of the data that
it represents at once.
That is, I want to see the original data table that was used to create the
Pivot Table.

I have located the source data specified in the "PivotTable Tools » Options
» Data » Change Data Source" area of the ribbon.

That value is: '\Documents and Settings\xgraham\My Documents\This
Data\Pivots for Review\Markets\[Updated 2009 Data.xls]Raw Data'!$A$25:$H$11263

However, the user referred to there (xgraham) is not me, has never worked on
this machine, and no longer works for the company.

I believe the data table is saved with the PivotTable as a default - if I
double click the values fields I do get the sheets created with subsets for
that value - where is it stored in the file?

There are no hidden (or very hidden) sheets or columns/rows in the file

I need to add some columns to the original data table and recreate the
PivotTable, but I can't get to the original data set though it must be
somewhere because the Pivot Table functions normally without there being any
live connections.

Any help is greatfully appreciated,
Regards,
KeLee
