Formulas within Pivot Table

Posted by Jeff on September 29, 2001 5:48 AM
Is there any way to make a column of calculations within the data range of a Pivot Table. I can make calculation "outside" the pivot table using the data within but this has to be changed each time I refresh the data. I would like to have a couple columns of formulas that always work with the data, maybe the approach is to creat a field name? Does this work in Pivot Table?

Take a look at the Excel Help topics for...

"Create a calculated item in a PivotTable"

"Syntax for calculated field and item
formulas in PivotTables"
