pivot table charts
 
Hi
Is there any way that you can you stop a pivot chart updating when the
source data changes?

Thanks

To make the pivot chart independent of the source pivot table:

Right-click on the pivot chart, and click Copy
Open a new workbook
Right-click on a cell, and click Paste
In the new workbook, choose EditLinks
Click on Break Link, then click Break Link to confirm.
The pivot chart in the new workbook is now based on set values, that you
can see in the formula bar, when you click on a series.
