For the life of me I can't find where I can set the Pivot Table's column size for just xlColumnField and I've spent far too much time on this simple little thing. grrrr

I have several macros that auto generate pivot tables based upon criteria. I want the Autofit columns to be turned off after the PT is created and set the Column Fields width to 8

Code:
        Columns("B:F").ColumnWidth = 8
doesn't work

Code:
    With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2")        .ColumnWidth = 8
    End With
doesn't work obviously.

nor does
Code:
    With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2")
        .AutoFit = False
        End With
Code:
        PivotTable2.HasAutoFormat = False

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Edit: I should probably clarify that I only need to change the pivot table widths on this new PT creation. Not the other PT's that are created within the macro.

How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest
