pivot table calculated field with user function
 

Is it possible/how do I use a user function for a pivot table
calculated field? Something like the following:

With pt
.AddFields RowFields:="Vendor", ColumnFields:="Channel"
.PivotFields("Name").Orientation = xlDataField
.CalculatedFields.Add name:="BlueBox",
Formula:="=CountBlueBox(Name,Channel)"
With .PivotFields("BlueBox")
.Orientation = xlDataField
End With
End With

I don't seem to understand how to specify the function CountBlueBox as
the Formula.

To the best of my knowledge you can not use a UDF with a Pivot Table. You
could add an extra column into your source data and add the UDF value to that
column perhaps...

Thanks for the information. I was affraid of that. I ended up having
to make another table.
