Save graph formatting
 
I have formatted my pivot graph but every time I refresh or change the pivot,
the graph reverts back to a different default. I have saved it as a default
graph.

Have you tried unclicking the checkbox for 'AutoFormat table' in the
PivotTable Options window?

Hope this helps.
If it does, please click the Yes button.
Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Thank you, that was helpful, now I just need to know why I don't have the
option to uncheck it.

Not sure if this will work, but try this...
Go to the underlying pivot table that the graph is based on.
Right-click inside the pivot table to bring up a shortcut menu
Select 'Table Options'
Uncheck the 'AutoFormat Table' checkbox

Thanks, I did finally figure that out. Unfortunately it is still not
working. Not sure if it's because it's the type of graph I'm using or not.
It's a Line - Column graph. It keeps my other formating but will not keep
the graph type. Still working on it.
