Default Pivot table - Same column Name


Hi,

I get a report produced by another application in an excel spreadsheet
and
I am trying to do a pivot table from this report.

In this spreadsheet I have the (partial) following columns with the
headings:

Column a; Column b; Column c; Column d; Column e;
Acc_no; Srce_sys; DQ_error; DQ_error; DQ_error;
- - - -
-
- - - -
-
- - - -
-
- - - -
-

My problem is the following:
If I do a pivot from this information, each column will be a field in
the pivot.

I want columns C, D and E to be just one field, because they all
represent the heading "DQ_error". Is it possible to "merge" these 3
columns so they can be just one field in the pivot.

I know I could do a lot of copying and pasting but in the report there
are about 19 columns with the heading DQ_error so I'm trying to avoid
that.

Thanks
