Possible to create a customize Pivot Table Template?
MS Excel 2003 - Is it possible to create a customized privot table to use on
a different set of Excel workbooks? I created a pivot table in one workbook but I need to use the exact same table layout (headers, sums, etc.) in about 10 other Excel workbooks. Is there a way to copy this so I don't have to keep re-creating the pivot table. Each of my other workbooks contain the exact same formatting and headers as my first one. They are all exactly the same format, only the data is different. Thanks! |

Save a copy of the template file, delete any source data but leave the header
row, paste in data from another sheet and refresh the pivot table, save as and name the sheet. This will only work if you have identical columns. Also keep in mind that if you chose a range (say A1 to A20) for the data source and the new data is more than 20 rows it will cut it off. To fix this, change your data source to include the entire column (A:A). -- -John Please rate when your question is answered to help us and others know what is helpful.

Thanks for the reply. So there is really no other way to save it as a
template and then choose the template in the new workbook? Instead of deleting source data and re-using the pivot table. I can't delete the source data as I need it for future references. However I guess I could just rename the workbook but thought there was a better way.
