Caveat - I am brand new to posting on this board and quite new to macros. That being said, I have created a macro with part recording and part hand-editing that makes a new pivot table from a pivot table made by another macro.

I ran the macro quite a few times successfully, then I started having any number of errors in the same location.

Code: 
    ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Create(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:= _
        Addr, Version:=xlPivotTableVersion14).CreatePivotTable _
        TableDestination:="CAMPivot (Step 9)!R3C1", TableName:="PivotTable2", DefaultVersion _
        :=xlPivotTableVersion14

The last error was run-time error 5 - invalid call or argument. Previously, I was having a different error, but I read through a bunch of posts and changed my code to include the dim addr as string reference in hopes of being able to run this macro repeatedly. Oddly enough, the macro that records the first pivot table has not had any problems and is in its original format without the dim addr as string section.

Lastly, I changed the table name from PivotTable1 to PivotTable2 and then back again with no success (thinking the 1 would already be taken by the first pivot table in the workbook)...

Here is the entire code:
Code: 
Sub CAMPivot()

Any help is sooo very much appreciated - I developed this awesome (only partially awesome right now) automated process here at work, and now it's suddenly faulty.

Still having the same problem... :( I've entered a different variation of the same code, but I just can't get it to run again. (I'm running excel 2010). Any help would be so much appreciated!

Here's the updated code giving me a runtime error -
Code: 
    Range("J1").Select
    ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Create(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:= _
        Worksheets("Macros (Steps 9-10)").Range("J1").CurrentRegion, Version:=xlPivotTableVersion14). _
        CreatePivotTable TableDestination:="", TableName:="PivotTable1" _
        , DefaultVersion:=xlPivotTableVersion14
