Refreshing data
Everyday uses
If you change the source data, the PivotTable will not automatically refresh
You must explicitly tell the PivotTable to refresh by either:
– Selecting Options > Refresh while the cursor is located in the PivotTable
– Right-clicking within the PivotTable and selecting Refresh Data
In a database with MSA’s, you want to find out how many MSA’s were in the
database
– Put MSA as a Row Field and MSA as a Data Field using “Count of”
– The unique list of MSA’s will be your rows
You created a DBF file, but the control totals did not match
– Since you used a PivotTable to check your numbers the first time, you
can point the old PivotTable at new data to check them again
You do not like the order in a list, but do not want to change the underlying
data
– Make a PivotTable and reorder the items in the table
