Default Pivot table sorting, should be easy I think


This seems like it should be easy, but it's not. I have a pivot table
with data like I have below. I want to sort the TICKER column on 2006
total (a subtotal) and not Grand Total , but my only options seem to be
sorting the tickers alphabetically or by grand total, not by 2006 total.
I want to keep the 2005 and 2004 data in the table. Any ideas?

If you select a cell in the 2006Total column, and click the A-Z or Z-A
button on the Excel toolbar, it should sort by that column.
