It might, but we're going to need more information. Can you post the workbook?

nice! how did you set up this pivot table when creating it?
Here are the steps...
1) First insert a new row and place a header in there.
2) Select any cell in column A and go to Insert Tab and click on Pivot Table.
3) Choose the destination for the Pivot Table, by default New Worksheet radio button would be selected, you can go with that also otherwise choose Existing Worksheet, click inside the Location box and choose the destination cell on the sheet and click OK.
4) Now from the Field List which would appear on the right side, click the Header you just created and drag it down into the Rows area and click the same header and drag it down again but this time into the Values area.
That's it.
Hope it helps.
