excel 2007 macro recorded pivot table
 

I record a macro in excel 2007 in which i create a pivot table. when i try to
run the macro i get "invalid procedure call or argument". the same process
works fine in excel 2003. If i look at the debug window the "problem code" is
: -ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Create(SourceType:=xlDa tabase, SourceData:= _
"JDE Import!R1C1:R3500C37",
Version:=xlPivotTableVersion12).CreatePivotTable _
TableDestination:="Calculations & summary!R4C3",
TableName:="PivotTable7", _
DefaultVersion:=xlPivotTableVersion12

I guess this gives two questions: how can a recorded macro then not work
again? (i have cleared, removed and recreated the destination sheet and all
sorts) and two, what is wrong with the macro itself?

Actually, it is fairly common for a recorded macro to not work "out of the
box"- they often need just a tiny bit of tweaking.

I'm not a big pivot-table automator, and without seeing the rest of the
macro, it is hard to tell what the problem might be- the wrong sheet might be
active, etc.

I'd suggest you post a followup to the Excel.programming newsgroup, and
include all (or at least a larger chunk) of the code that preceeds the line
where it errors out.

Hi

The problem is
xlPivotTableVersion12

For XL2003 change to
xlPivotTableVersion11
