Resizing a pivot column based on Field Name
 
I need to find code that will resize a column based on the pivot row's field
name.

Say I have a pivot field named "Long Name" and each time I use it for a
pivot it autofits to an enormous length. I need a macro to check each
pivotrows' name and resize it to a specific length if it matches "Long Name".
Make sense?

I know that I could just set the size to what I want and then turn off
autoformat, but this won't do because the pivot can be changed and sliced
many ways. I need a dynamic solution.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out with this!!

Are there no solutions to this problem? I've seen similar questions posted
here before and have never seen an answer.

If you leave AutoFormat on, the column will adjust automatically, to fit
the widest entry.
