Pivot table in excel 2007 not updating automatically
Hi,
I have a pivot table in an excel 2007 file set to “Refresh data when opening the file”
However when I open the file I have to Refresh the Pivot table manually.
Any ideas how I can get this option to work ?
thanks
Hi sanjithml, jppinto, David and Rorya...
Oh...and i thought all i had to do was tick the box
updating manually
produces the results
roryo...it links directly to a range on another tab

will try your suggestion...once i figure out how to add the code!!
just one other piece of information... they're are other tabs in the file that have pivot tables that are updating fine...it is just this one that needs to be manually updated

Hi sanjithml, ippinto, David, rorya , matthewspatrick
I have populated the column that the pivot references with dummy data and now it is updating when opening...
the excel file i am using is a template that gets xml data dumped into it ...
it now seems to be working ok..
thanks for all your inputs, greatly informative and appreciated :-)
