How to use mutiple spreadsheets in a pivot table?
I am trying to use multiple spreadsheets to create a pivot table in order to
analyse corporate profitablility. I am relatively new to pivot tables and can find little help in this area. I have a spreadsheet with a number of tabs, with a reconciliation page that currently uses arrays and lookup to access the data from a couple of the other tabs. I think a pivot table would work better. any ideas? Thanks, -Ian |
You can create a Pivot Table from multiple consolidation ranges, but you
won't get the same pivot table layout that you'd get from a single range. There's an example he http://www.contextures.com/xlPivot08.html If possible, store your data in a single worksheet, or in a database, and you'll have more flexibility in creating the pivot table.
