Hi Debra,
That seems to be the best alternative. Thank you and to everybody on this forum for your contributions. FN --------------------- "Debra Dalgleish" wrote: You're welcome. There's no way to change the setting. Depending on what the calculated field does, perhaps you could add a field in the source data that does a similar calculation, then add that to the pivot table, and show the average.

Sum is the only function available. FaN404 wrote: Hi! on a calculated field I've just created, the SUM settings appears by default. As I wish to calculate AVERAGE, how can I change from SUM to AVERAGE? From the context menu of my calculated field column I select FIEL SETTINGS, and a small dialog box opens with several options: SUM, COUNT, AVERAGE, etc. But I can't change/choose none. Is there a way to change from SUM to AVERAGE? -- Debra Dalgleish Contextures http://www.contextures.com/tiptech.html -- Debra Dalgleish Contextures http://www.contextures.com/tiptech.html |
