Howdy,

Pivot Tables are a bit of a hole in my excel expertise. I know how to use them, but not very well.

The sample sheet below shows a summary row of calculations based on counts of TRUEs and FALSEs in the data. It actually counts 1s and 0 in columns J through M because I do some error catching as well. The Percentage Complete is based on those counts AND the weighted numbers shown above each summary header.

Works great, except now the boss want to see those summary calculations separated by Area (column B). My first thought is pivot tables! Question is how do I get those summary calcs into a pivot table for each area? I saw a post about inserting calculated fields into a pivot table (Formulas...Calculated Field) but I don't seem to have that function available to me (I run Excel 2002). :cry:

Any thoughts?

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
Ok. Figured out part of the problem. The created pivot table below shows exactly what I wanted to create (The Grand total at the bottom confirms the numbers are correct) EXCEPT for the Percentage Complete.

If you look at the original post, the Grand Total number should be 61.82. I think this has to do with the fact that the formula I created is SUM OF Percentage complete, not Percentage Complete. That formula needs to be calcuated on the colculate Counts and Sums in the pivot table, not the source data.

How would I do that, short of doing the formula outside of the pivot table?
