Sorting rows in Pivot table
Hi,
I've a pivot table and connected chart with names of month in the rows. Default ordered by name and I'm able to manualy order them in correct order. All OK. But now my problem: The months are in a sort of floating year, from one month till the same month in the other year (ref to year is included in the name), so I have to sort one time apr '05 to mar '06 and the other time may '05 to apr '06. I've tried it with a dummy var with numbers (200504 .... 200609 ....), but then that var is visible in the chart, what I don't like. Anyone an idea? regards, Henk |

Anyone an idea? regards, Henk Surely if you sort, then all the dates will be sorted? How do you sort only subsets of the dates? |

Sorting rows in Pivot table
the underlying data is a query exported from Access. Within Access I select
the period (so the data are in correct order, but that order is not retained in the pivot table) "Paul Lautman" wrote: hstijnen wrote: Hi, I've a pivot table and connected chart with names of month in the rows.
