Default How to change default page setup for pivot tables?

Whenever I create a pivot table in a new sheet...the new sheet doesn't
default to the page setups that I created in my "book.xlt" and/or "sheet.xlt"
files that exist at C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\XLSTART. Is
there any way that I can establish a default page setup for new sheets that
are created with pivot tables? Thanks, Bob.

Not that I know of.

But could you build your pivottable, then insert a new worksheet (getting the
default sheet.xlt), then copy the pivottable from the "bad" sheet to the new
"good" sheet.

Then delete the bad sheet.

It seemed to work ok for me in my quick check with xl2002.

Alternatively, maybe you could add a macro to your personal.xls that changes the
page/print settings the way you want. Then you could just run that macro
against the PT sheet. (It might even be useful for other worksheets--ones you
get from co-workers???).
