Pivot Tables

My raw data contains text data also.
How can I get text to appear as a data item on my pivot table?

RE: Pivot Tables

Hi Kirti

Thanks for your question.

Unfortunately you can't display text data in the data items area of a pivot table. As an alternative, you could display the text fields in the Row and Column areas, and then show a count of the records in the data items area.

Excel tip:

Adding Rows or Columns in an Excel 2010 Worksheet

If you want to add a row to an Excel spreadsheet, these are the simple steps you should take:

With your mouse, right click on the row header below where you want the new row to be added. Then, click Insert.

Follow exactly the same steps if you want to add a column to an Excel worksheet, right click on the column header, choose Insert and the new column will be inserted to the left of the selected column.
