I have a worksheet with a "Rates" column containing cells of various formats. Some are General, some are Percent, some are Currency, some are Text, etc. When this column is pulled into a pivot table, the original formatting is lost and the entire column appears in General format. Is there a way to retain the formatting from the source column?
