Automatic Refresh for Pivot Table
 

It may be that the PivotTable is no longer identified as item (1).

Right-click on the PivotTable and select "Table Options..." from the
shortcut menu. Note the name listed in the "Name:" field on top and then
replace the "1" in your code to the PivotTable name in quotes.

Ex.
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotCache. Refresh
End Sub

Hi,

After some data update in the source file (separate file), I would like
an automatic refresh of pivot table.
I am using the following code :
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
ActiveSheet.PivotTables(1).PivotCache.Refresh
End Sub
What 's wrong ? Any ideas ?
TIA

Glenn,

Thanks a lot for your input.
But it would appear that, in fact, any event does not fire if an object
is in the sheet and if the routine comes back from another workbook ...
I am still working this out
Cheers

Hi,

For the sake of completion, one has to fire this type from the other
workbook i.e. use application.run from the second workbook.
Cheers
