How to remove Old values from a pivot (data dimension)
I have a pivot sheet referring to a dataset where I have period which i want
to have as a data set. now was that for example 200511. I deleted that info and now only have other values there like 200601 or so but in the dropdown box of the period ( data column) this old value 200511 is still there I can't get ride of it ( in the dropdown) not even after refreshing the pivot. How do i make sure that values which are not in the Datasource anymore are being removed from all dropdown boxes (page, row as data) Regards, Linda Monincx |

How to remove Old values from a pivot (data dimension)
Hi Linda
On the PT, drag the field off the PT, use the Refresh button on the PT toolbar, then drag the field back to its original location. -- Regards Roger Govier "Linda Monincx" <Linda wrote in message ...

How to remove Old values from a pivot (data dimension)
Hi Linda
Did you drag these page fields off the PT and do the Refresh as well? With the field dragged off the PT, try highlighting the field in the PT field listRefreshthen drag back. Silly question, but are you sure there are no entries in the source data still containing the value? What happens if you deselect all items other than the "offending" Item? Do you see any figures within the PT itself? -- Regards Roger Govier "Linda Monincx" wrote in message ... HI Roger, I tried that and it didnot work, i applied the script which was on the website of contextures and that only worked on the Data fields but the values in the Page boxes still existed after running the macro "Roger Govier" wrote: Hi Linda On the PT, drag the field off the PT, use the Refresh button on the PT toolbar, then drag the field back to its original location. -- Regards Roger Govier "Linda Monincx" <Linda wrote in message ...
