complicate matters, each pivot table has its own chart associated with it.
Is there a way to keep the pivot tables & charts I've already built and just
re-direct them to pull from the external source? From what I can tell so
far, it's not possible. I really don't want to have to redo all the
tables/charts! I've seemed to have exhausted my search so I'm turning to
this group to help! Thanks in advance!
Try this:

1. go to PIVOT TABLE AND PIVOT WIZARD 1 OF 3
2. Keep opened other workbook which has consolidated pivot table
3. go to RANGE and just the select the entire pivot table in other workbook

all the best
