Default Excel Pivot 2007 Report Format


I am trying to format pivot to better display of an Event Timeline. I have
one Pivot by Category, Sub-catetory, etc. and the other Pivot by Date, Tim,
Categ, SubCateg.

My Event Committee are reading the blank indents as "missing" informatiion.
The Design color options do not help. I have also tried the Setting the
Field Options for the Columns to indent.

eg.
Category Sub-catg Date Action
Budget Budget 20-Feb Set up budget tracking report
Committee Auction Gifts 20-Feb Coordinate sales of ads/gifts
6-Mar Coordinate with Allison
CommitteeRoles 6-Mar Pull more volunteers, target Organizer
20-Feb Quick review of Committee Roles

Looking to do something like this:
Category Date Action
Budget
Budget 20-Feb Set up budget tracking report
Committee
Auction Gifts 20-Feb Coordinate sales of ads/gifts
Auction Gifts 6-Mar Coordinate with Allison
CommitteeRoles 6-Mar Pull more volunteers, target Organizer
20-Feb Quick review of Committee Roles

Hi,

I'm not clear on what your problem is. However, maybe changing the Report
Layout will solve your problem. With the pivot table selected choose
PivotTable Tools, Design, Report Layout and try all three options.

Just a note - you can modify the color style of your pivot table, and you
can always apply manual formatting on top of the pivot table style.

If this helps, please click the Yes button

Click at Pivot Table. Go to last menu on the right side. (I guess, it's
called design), click on layout (left hand side section), click on 3rd button
from left (layout) and choose display in compact form.
