Pivot Table

How do you use pivot tables

RE: Pivot Table

Hi Lisa, Thank you for your post

In answer to your question, a Pivot Table is an interactive worksheet table that can summarise large amounts of data using the views and permutations that you choose. It is called a Pivot Table because you can rotate its row and column headings around the core data to give you different views of the source data. As the source data changes you can update the pivot table, a pivot table can be used as a source for a pivot chart. I hope that makes it clearer.
regards Pete.

Excel tip:

Move data worksheet to worksheet

To move data from one worksheet to another, highlight the data.

Select and hold down the ALT key and position the mouse on the border of the selection until the mouse pointer displays four-headed arrows.

Drag the selection down to the destination worksheet tab.

When the arrow touches the tab, Excel switches to the desired worksheet. Now drag the selection to the correct position. Let go of the mouse and then the ALT key.

To copy data from one worksheet to another, select and hold down the CTRL+ALT keystroke combination and perform the steps above.
