pivot tables
I am trying to create a pivot table to analize a large spreadsheet of invoice
data. The spreadsheet contains details of a number of invoices, and each invoice is broken down into different elements. The spreadsheet contains over a 1000 rows of data. When I try to count the number of invoices the answer equalls the number of rows in the spreadsheet, what I need is the actual number of individual invoices. So if the number of invoices process was 2, but one invoice number appeared in 700 rows and the second invoice appeared in 300 rows the count figures would be 700 and 300. I actually want the answere to be 2. Can this be done -- SC |

pivot tables
Assume you have Invoice# in Column A and Status in Col B (You just need
another column with a header and any data)... Select Col A and Col B and create a PIVOT TABLE In the LAYOUT Put Inovice# in the ROW area and second column in Data area... If you see COUNT of STATUS just finish building your PIVOT TABLE... If not then double click it and change the SUM to COUNT...
