Pivot Table as Source Range
I just tried using a Pivot table in a Vlookup() and it doesn't seem to work.
=Vlookup(A1,MyPivottableRange,2) Can someone confirm or inform me otherwise? TIA |
Pivot Table as Source Range
Since a pivot table does not repeat the heading values down the columns you
are not going to have a lot of luck using the pivot table as the source for a vlookup. Perhaps a better explanation of what you are trying to do would help. A sumproduct formula directed against the source data for the pivot table might be a better option. -- HTH...

Jim - I have on Sheet1 a Pivot table in Range A3:B20
Sum of Contracts $$ State Total PA 227,112 '=Vlookup(A5, Sheet2!A5:B20, 2) hoped to bring in 227,817 FL 150,000 Mo 125,000 On sheet2 I have a Pivot table in Range A3:B20 Sum of Contracts $$ State Total PA 227,817 FL 86,662 etc FA "Jim Thomlinson" wrote: Since a pivot table does not repeat the heading values down the columns you are not going to have a lot of luck using the pivot table as the source for a vlookup.

Pivot Table as Source Range
although the formula:
=SUMPRODUCT(('S-PT'!$A$5:$A$24=PT!A5)*('S-PT'!$B$5:$B$24)) Works great!!!

Hi Jim
Take a look at the GetPivotData function. More help can be found at Debra Dalgleish's site http://www.contextures.com/xlPivot06.html -- Regards Roger Govier "Jim May" wrote in message ...
