Hi,

I am automating a pivot table and I want more than 1 data fields. For the row fields it accepts an array:

HTML:
pt.AddFields RowFields:=Array("GPProject", "Department",)

But it won't accept that for the data fields, below is the code for a single field
HTML:
pt.AddDataField pt.PivotFields("FY13/14"), "Sum of Amount"

I have looked at this problem a few time with no solution. Would anyone know the answer or point me in the right direction?

I even have a pivot table book, but it some how doesn't cover this exact question :(

Cheers,
Sweeneytime

Full Code I'm using
HTML:
Sub ForecastPVBoard()

    Dim LR As Long
    Dim wb As Workbook
    Dim pt As PivotTable
    Dim pc As PivotCache
    Dim Data As Range
    
    'Find last row
    LR = Range("AD" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
 
    Sheets("Forecast Data").Select
    
    With Sheets("Forecast Data")
    
    'Data for pivot table
    Range("A1").Select
    Range(ActiveCell.Offset(0, 10), Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
    
    Set Data = Selection
   
    Range("A1").Select
    
    Data.Select
    

    Set wb = ActiveWorkbook
    
    Set pc = wb.PivotCaches.Add(SourceType:=xlDatabase, _
            SourceData:=Data)
    
    'Create PV
    
    Sheets("PV Report Board").Select
    
    Set pt = pc.CreatePivotTable _
        (Tabledestination:=wb.Worksheets("PV Report Board").Range("A1"), _
        TableName:="Data")
    
    'Add rows and column fields
    pt.AddFields RowFields:=Array("GPProject", "Department", "Organization_Name", "Person_Name", "Position", "Grade_Name", "GRade_Step", "Assignment_End_Date", "Time_Fraction")
    
    'Add Value Fields
    pt.AddDataField pt.PivotFields("FY13/14"), "Sum of Amount"
    
    Call NoSubtotals
    
    'PasteSpecial PV
    pt.TableRange2.Copy
    
    Range("A1").Select
    
    Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
        :=False, Transpose:=False
    Application.CutCopyMode = False
   
 
    
    End With
       

    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    Application.Calculation = xlAutomatic
    

End Sub

Use =UPPER() for upper case, =LOWER() for lower case, and =PROPER() for proper case. PROPER won't capitalize second c in Mccartney
