how to refresh pivot data
Hey all, I am new to pivot tables... I have a spreadsheet with a number of worksheets and all of them are pivot tables presenting data in a different way etc. and one of the worksheets is the raw data the pivot is based on. I have added a number of new records and now I would like to refresh data within those pivot tables, just pressing the refresh option does not do it, I am thinking since I am not connected to any source but everything is being done "locally so to speak" I am updating the currect excel spreadsheet that has to be a more complex way than that. Anyway I can't quite work it ou. Can somebody help me please Thanks:) -- zobernjik ------------------------------------------------------------------------ zobernjik's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=29358 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=490669 |

how to refresh pivot data
Hi
Pressing the Refresh button will refresh the data, provided that the range of source data includes the rows you have just added. Set up a Dynamic range for your data, rather than a fixed range. For more help on setting dynamic ranges take a look at http://www.contextures.com/xlNames01.html#Dynamic Once you have your range named, go back to the PT wizard and insert your named range e.g. =mydata in place of the fixed range you have there. You will also find heaps more help on Pivot Tables at Debra's site. Regards Roger Govier zobernjik wrote: Hey all, I am new to pivot tables...
