Default How do I remove the (blank) from an excel pivot table?

I am trying to create a pivot table from a liston an excel spreadsheet. Many
of the items on the list will be blank. On the pivot table, the blank items
show up as (blank) - I want the cell to be empty! I tried setting the table
empty values but that doesn't work...any help would be greatly apprecated...

If you click the small black triangle near the top of the Table, a menu will
appear. Just clear the checkbox next to (blank)

Debra Dalgleish has a pivottable addin you may like:

You could just select that cell with (blank) in it and hit the spacebar.

You could even go back to the raw data and put ="" in those blank cells.
