In a Pivot Table - formatting a value to enter a pvt tbl field as
I am creating a simple pivot table with one field of values numbers to be
summed and a second field, occasional two letter alpha codes which are purely descriptive. In the source spreadsheet I have formatted the column which contains these codes as "Text". Text is supposed to remain unchanged, however when that column of data is entered into the pivot table as a value, it is handled as though it were numeric data, and the two letter codes don't show up at all. Further I see no way to manipulate this data field to be recognized as text in the pivot table itself. How do I get the pivot table to just take this alpha data as is? Thanks, Eric |
