I have my pivot table set up

One of the row labels is a date field, however I cannot get it to stay in the date format I wish, it keeps defaulting to dd/mm/yyyy

The source column is set to format dd mmm yyyy.

Every time I try something to change to date format in the pivot table, it defaults back again.

any pointers or help out there.

many thanks

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
Thanks,
The problem was I had 3 fields in the row labels.
I removed 2 of them, then was able to set the date format in the pivot table cells and it remained., put the other two row labels back in and date format remained. great.

Thanks
