Hi All,

I currently have the below code to sort column Descending order in Pivot based on selected cell in a column.
For some reason it doesn't sort all the numbers correctly in order, however it does sort in order if i do a manual sort.
Could someone look at this or suggest another code i could use?

VBA Code:
Sub PivotSort()
Application.DisplayAlerts = False

Dim pt As PivotTable
Dim pf As PivotField
Dim df As PivotField
Dim strVal As String

On Error Resume Next
Set pt = ActiveCell.PivotTable
If pt Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Set df = ActiveCell.PivotField

If df.Orientation <> xlDataField Then
  MsgBox "Please select a Values field"
  Exit Sub
Else
  If pt.PivotCache.OLAP = True Then
    strVal = df.Name
  Else
    strVal = df.Caption
  End If
End If

For Each pf In pt.RowFields
  pf.AutoSort xlDescending, strVal
Next pf
Application.DisplayAlerts = True

End Sub
VBA Code:

Can you AutoAverage in Excel?
There is a drop-down next to the AutoSum symbol. Open the drop-down to choose AVERAGE, COUNT, MAX, or MIN
Are you able to show us what you are expecting and what you are actually getting ?
Just keep in mind that the code is sorting the labels furthest to the right using the values column identified.
Then as it moves to through the labels field to the left the sort is by the relevant totals column for that grouping.
