How do I add multiple variables to a pivot table simulaneously
 

I want to add some columns to the pivot table. i do this by dragging the
items to the data area. How can I add many items at the same time instead of
dragging them one by one.

Dragging one by one is how it is done, or write a macro that does it for you.

Is that the only way to do it. I have to routinely add 100 or so variables.

If you need to do it a lot, either set up a template, with the pivot table defined, and then copy
the new data over your old data table, or record a macro.

I have the same issue, and I have a Macro that works... sometimes.

Problem is that I haven't found a good way to "reset" the pivot table
or chart in the macro. I have 3 different Macros to run in a single
Pivot Chart, each gives me a different graph. But one of them doesn't
use a "Page Field", so the Macros seem to get messed up if I run them
back to back (keep in mind I know 0 VBA, I only record macros). Is
there an easy way to completely clear out a Pivot chart or table within
the Macro as the first step before it starts adding stuff?
