Preserving PivotChart Formatting
I created a PivotChart and modified the colors for the chart bars. Whenever
I pivot the chart to create different views of the PivotChart, my custom colors for the chart bars revert back to the default colors. Is there a way that I can preserve the formatting attributes of my PivotCharts regardless of how many different views I create? By the way, the same data source is being used to create different views. Thanks in advanced. |

Loss of formatting is a known problem with pivot charts. There's
information in the following MSKB article, which suggests recording a macro as you apply the formatting: Changing a PivotChart removes series formatting in Excel http://support.microsoft.com/?id=215904 Outlook Convert wrote: I created a PivotChart and modified the colors for the chart bars.
