Hi,

One of my colleagues is using the GetPivotData function to pull data
from a pivot table in another worksheet of the same workbook.

As of now the whole data is being pulled from the pivot table for
testing purposes.

The pivot has a single page field, 7 row field and 1 column field. This
pivot works just fine. We copied the structure/layout of this whole
field and then pasted in adjacent worksheet. Now, we used the
getpivotdata function to query the values. The first row field we have
is country name. For 3 countries (Italy, Germany and France) we are
getting a N/A error when we use the getpivotdata function.

If we shorten the names of these countries then the Get pivotdata works
well. But this is surprising because we have got many countries whose
name is much bigger (like Russian Federation, Tanzania United Republic
etc). Why is this happening?

Im pasting the original pivot table data for 2 countries (with headings
changed). I hope google doesnt mess this. Im also pasting the function
argument below

Function argument for first row of Austria is
=GETPIVOTDATA(ecto,CONCATENATE($C4," ",K$3))

Austria doesnt give this error. We have copied the same formula till
the end. The function argument for Italy (which appears in row 572) is
=GETPIVOTDATA(ecto,CONCATENATE($C572," ",K$3))

ecto is a named range for the pivot table ($H$6:$Q$1497 of the pivot
worsheet) from which we are pulling the data.

Please guide me.

Hi,

Please let me know in case I need to provide any more information on
this. I want to understand as to why such quirks are happening.
