Pivot Table Sources

Hi
I have pivot table and would like to create another based on the results of the first.

How ca I do this?

RE: Pivot Table Sources

Hi Mary

Thanks for your question

A pivot table must be based on an Excel database. That is a list with column headings and no row titles. A pivot table is not in this format and therefore you cannot base another pivot table on it.

If you could give me some more detail about what analysis you are attempting, I could perhaps give you further guidance.

Regards

Stephen

Excel tip:

Autofit column width – Excel (all versions)

a. Highlight the column or columns you wish to alter the width of. You do this by clicking on the grey button at the top of the column showing the column letter. Click and drag on these letters to select more than one column.
b. Double click the dividing line between the columns. This dividing line is the break between the columns on the column headers (grey buttons showing the column letter at the top of each column). When you hover your mouse over one of these dividing lines the point will change and show an arrow pulling a line in two directions. When you have this mouse pointer you should double click to get Excel to automatically set the column width to fit the contents of the column (autofit)
