The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Just saved macro for Pivot Table fail in macro run (Excel 2007)

Asked by fischermx in Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Software, Visual Basic Programming

I have a very simple spreadsheet for which I want to create a macro that performs a pivot table.
So, I record a macro doing the steps I need. I see the code and all looks good.

But when I execute this code, for the first time alone as a Macro, it gives me a very silly error about not finding the activesheet. I'm attaching the code.
The error comes with the line after "Cells(1,1).Select"

I just don't understand why!

Range("A1").Select
    Range(Selection, ActiveCell.SpecialCells(xlLastCell)).Select
    ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Create(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:= _
        "MainData!R1C1:R110C14", Version:=xlPivotTableVersion12).CreatePivotTable _
        TableDestination:="Summary!C1:C3", TableName:="PivotTable2", _
        DefaultVersion:=xlPivotTableVersion12
    Sheets("Summary").Select
    Cells(1, 1).Select
    With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2").PivotFields("Category")
        .Orientation = xlRowField
        .Position = 1
    End With
    With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2").PivotFields("SubCategory")
        .Orientation = xlRowField
        .Position = 2
    End With
    ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2").AddDataField ActiveSheet.PivotTables( _
        "PivotTable2").PivotFields("Price"), "Count of Price", xlCount
    With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2").PivotFields("Count of Price")
        .Caption = "Sum of Price"
        .Function = xlSum
    End With
    Columns("B:B").Select
    Selection.Style = "Currency"
