Changing The Day
 

Assume that I have the following information:
Date
03/01/08
03/02/08
03/03/08
03/04/08
03/05/08
and so on...

If I were to use the Date in a column for a pivot table I would get five
separte columns. What I would like to get just one column that would read
March 2008. Is there a way to format the information in the Date column so
that it would be read as March 2008 for a pivot table or is there a formula
that I can use that would do the same thing?

Thanks

Just build the pivot table as normal, then when you have setup the fields,
right-click a date in the pivot and select Group and Show
DetailGroup...Months.
