Hi,

I have about 50 pivot tables that shows a rolling 12 month period. After I
refresh each month I want to drop off the 13th month. How can I do this
without having to go to each table and deselect the latest month? Any help
is appreciated thanks!!

i.e. february 2007 to february 2006 - With all the months in - between.
After refresh -

March 2007 to February 2006 - I don't want to display the Feb 2006

Thanks You!!!!

Just limit your initial pivot table data source to the months you actually
want (assuming your data is sorted). You can use dynamic named ranges to
accomplish this. Check out Debra Dalgleish's site at www.contextures.com for
great tutorials on pivot tables and dynamic ranges.

My datasource is in an Access Database. I'm not sure if I can limit the data
source from the database.

Hmm, maybe you can set up a query in Access to extract the records you want
into an Excel file and then run your pivot table off that filtered dataset?
Seems like the easiest solution to me. If not, hopefully someone else has a
better idea.
