Why after I update datasource (with same structure) and refresh Pivot chart,
all the setup are lost? Is there anyway to fix it-- ideal is by clicking one
button, all the charts/tables get updated.

Thanks a bunch!

On the pivot table options dialogue, uncheck autoformat

Sorry if this is a dummy question:

Put the mouse in pivot tabe, and choose Pivot tabel/ tabel options, it
prompts: the pivot table report is not valid.

Tried in the related pivot chart, same message. How can I get to the
Autoformat option?

Why do I get the message "Cannot Group That Selection" when I try to
summarize my Date column into monthly "groups"? This happens most of the
time, but sometimes I get lucky for some unknown reason and I can group the
data.

Help!!!

You might see that error if the field that you're trying to group
contains text or blank cells. There are suggestions here for fixing the
problem:
