Default Pivot Table & 0

Hi all,

This is probably a simple one to answer but you never know, I have created a
pivot table based on a selection of data, nothing to bad there but when the
pivot table completes all I have for data are (0) and there is data there to
be shown, any thoughts on why this is, I have all my titles and they look
fine and I have tried alsorts!

Thanks Phil

Hi
Are you summing the data? It might look like numbers but is actually text.
Try doing a Count in the pivot table and see if that returns anything.
If your 'number' are text, copy a blank, unused cell, select the range of
'numbers' and use Edit/Paste Special/Add.
Hope this helps.

Hi Andy,

Thanks for that, I'm pulling it through from a SQL table and the formats
were a little out, guess just one of those things.

Thanks Again, Phil
