Default Macro Failure

Errata....

My bad! Apparently whitespace is permitted after the period between the
object and its property. Klunk!

I believe you can continue a line (the underscore "_") only where whitespace
is permitted. ("Whitespace" is tabs and spaces.). You are trying to
continue a line between an object (PivotFields) and its property
(CurrentPage). Instead, this must all one line, or you can continue the line
just before "=".

HTH.

Hi, I am not great with macros and can only get by with recording, not
actually writing VBA. I am recording a really simple macro which goes through
3 pages and changes the pivot chart Country to Belgium for example, then I
need to go to a hidden sheet, unhide the sheet and refresh the pivot on that
sheet, and hide the sheet again before I go back to the front page. Unhiding
and hiding the sheet seems to fail the macro as I get a debug. Any ideas how
to record a macro which has to refresh a pivot with a hidden sheet?


'
Sheets("SUMMARY").Select
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable3").PivotFields ("Client ID Name"). _
CurrentPage = "XXX-BELGIUM "
Sheets("ADV BOOKIND DAYS").Select
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable4").PivotFields ("Client ID Name"). _
CurrentPage = "XXX-BELGIUM "
Sheets("By Class").Select
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable4").PivotFields ("Client ID Name"). _
CurrentPage = "XXX-BELGIUM "
Sheets("FORMAT RAW").Visible = True
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2").PivotFields ("Client ID Name"). _
CurrentPage = "XXX-BELGIUM "
Sheets("RAW DATA").Visible = True
Sheets("Sheet1").Select

It seems to stick at this line - 3rd up from bottom...
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2").PivotFields ("Client ID Name"). _
CurrentPage = "XXX-BELGIUM

Any advice would be fantastic ...

Many thanks
Paula
