Excel 2010 Pivot Chart

On my pivot chart, the field filters at the top of the chart do not show the field value that it was filtered on. We filter on Customer. I am clicked into the chart and I select the analyze tab, on the field button drop down, the "show legend
field buttons" option is not enabled.
Why isn't that enabled?
Thank you for your help.

Hi
I hope you can help me please?
I have a similar issue in that I produce spreadsheets that I present to the Management team twice a month.
I have pivots for the forecast, which support a graph.
Using the filter, we look at a product family at a time
How can I display a family name (that we have filtered on) on the chart itself, please?
I've searched as many websites as I can to find help but haven't been successful.
I can't add a print screen at present (need my account verified).

Excel 2010 Pivot Table VBA Not Refreshing Table

My company recently upgraded from Excel 2003 to 2010. I had VBA written to take source data and convert it into a number of Pivot Tables on a number of worksheets. It has been working fine for years. After upgrading to 2010 the VBA crashed. I tracked it
down to the fact that when my code was making changes to the Pivot Tables (changing fields, filters, etc...) the pivot table on the worksheet had no data, but the fields were there. I can manually go to the pivot table and manually refresh and all the data
comes in.
So I tried adding the VBA code to refresh the pivot table, but the pivot tables will not refresh with data.
I tried:
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("WO Pivot").RefreshTable
and
ActiveWorkbook.RefreshAll
And these did not work.
I also tried recording a macro for the manual steps to refresh and got:
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("WO Pivot").PivotCache.Refresh
This does not work either.
The PivotTable name is correct, but I tried using the number as well, and the name works for other code manipulating the the pivot table.
e.g.:
With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("WOPivot").PivotFields("Task Title")
.Orientation = xlRowField .Position = 2
.Subtotals = Array(False, False, False, False, False, False, False, False, False, False, _False, False)
End
With Why isn't this working? Is there another way to refresh pivot table data in 2010?
Thanks. P.S. I've tried formating this so it is readable, but it comes out garbled. Hope this looks better.

The solution above didn't work for me, but the following did the trick:
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("WOPivot").PivotCache.Refresh
By the way, I identified it by recording a macro, then going on the Pivot Table that needed refreshing and pressing F9 to refresh it. The line of VBA code above was the result.
Cheers,
Marco.

Complex Calculations in Excel 2010 Pivot Tables

Douglas R. Eckert

It would be better if you can provide us with more information for this issue....
In PivotTable reports, you can use summary functions or customer calculations in value field. You can also create your own formulas in calculated fields and calculated items.

Hide Blank Rows in a Pivot Table in Outline Form in Excel 2010

In Excel 2010 Pivot Tables, using the Outline Format and Repeat Item Labels, is it possible to hide the rows with no data? Please see atch.
Doug in York PA
Douglas R. Eckert

Hi,
If you want to hide these subtotal rows, you have to use the Tabular forum, the Tabular layout is very similar to Outline except that you will not
have subtotals at the top of every group.
1.Right-click an item in the pivot table field, and click Field Settings
2.In the Field Settings dialog box, click the Layout & Print tab.
3.Check the 'Show item labels form in tabular form’
check box.
4.Click OK
Then your pivot table layout should look like the image below:
Let us know if that’s what you wanted.

Problem with pivot tables connected to SSAS 2008 R2 in Excel 2010: "Excel found unreadable content in ' file_name '..."

Hi,
I have such problem when I open in Excel 2010 14.0.7128.5000 (32 bit) a xlsx-file containing pivot tables and slicers connected to SSAS 2008 R2 cube:
- Excel found unreadable content in '...'. Do you want to recover the contents of this workbook? If you trust...
And this text after clicking "Yes":

What may be the reason?
It has become a regular at some point for files created in Excel 2013. But this file was created in the same excel in which I try to open this file.
Thanks for help in advance.
Best regards,

Hi,
The whole error message like this:
"Excel found unreadable content in '<<var>File name></var>.xls'. Do you want to recover the contents of this workbook?
If you click Yes in the error message, the file cannot be opened as expected."
Please try the following methods and check they are helpful:
1. Install the hotfix for Excel 2010.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2544025/en-us
2. Installing the 'Visual Basic' component of MS Office 2010
'Navigate to 'Control Panel >> Programs' -> select Microsoft Office 2010, and then click 'Change >> Add or Remove Programs' -> at the bottom of this list, click the 'plus' sign provided next to Office Shared Features -> click Visual
Basic for Applications -> After that, right-click and choose Run from My Computer -> click Continue'.
3. Run as administrator
4. Go the file in Windows Explorer, right-click on the file, select Properties and at the bottom there's an area called Security, click on Unblock.

Excel 2010 bug -- cannot place controls on chart properly after changing paper size

I have encountered unexpected behavior in Excel 2010 when placing controls on a chart that is a separate sheet. The issue is that the controls (e.g. spinner, scroll bar, etc.) cannot be placed or moved to the right side or the bottom.
Steps to reproduce:
1) create a chart as a separate sheet
2) change the paper size to, for example, A6 (4.13" x 5.83")
3) change paper size back to Letter (8.5" x 11")
4) controls cannot be placed on right side or bottom of chart.
It appears that instead of using the current dimensions of the chart paper size to determine where controls may be placed, the smallest dimensions that have ever been applied to the chart are used.
I am looking for a workaround for this issue since I would like to use a paper size large than 8.5" x 11", but I cannot place controls on such a chart properly at this time.
Any ideas?

I have found a workaround for this issue:
1) change paper size in your default printer's preferences to the paper size you want in Excel.
2) afterwards insert or create the chart. It is automatically the correct paper size, and controls can be placed or moved properly.
3) change default printer paper size back.
In case your chart has already been created, simply copy the existing chart in step 2 instead of inserting/creating.

Limit a Pivot Table filter to just one group (Excel 2010)

I use Excel 2010 and want to apply a filter to just one group of data within a Pivot Table.
It appears that filters are applied to the entire Pivot table; is there a way to limit the scope of a filter so it is applied to just a single group of data (grouped using the group function within a Pivot). Alternatively could I apply a filter to just a
selection of rows within the Pivot?
I have tried breaking my pivot into separate tables and applying the filters individually but the tables interfere with each other when expanded/collapsed and generate the Excel "overlapping tables" error message.
Any suggestions gratefully received.
Regards
Pete

just use filter is no possible that apply a filter to one group. maybe slicers is a good choose.

Using external parameters within MS Query returning that data right into a pivot table Excel 2010

In Excel 2010 i was able to use the external parameters within MS Query returning that data right into a pivot table. But the parameter on the worksheet will not save in the paremeter setting of the data connection. And if you save it and open
it and try to refresh the pivot table Excel stops responding and you have to force the file closed. I found out the reason to crash is that it did not keep the parameter saved.
Can this be fixed?

EXPORT PIVOT CHART TO EXCEL

Hi Experts ,
I want to export the internal table data to the excel graph or chart .
using OLE .( or any other method which u can suggest.)
my internal table in having three col

val1
val2
Name should be Y Axis.
Please suggest me the solution.
right now am just displaying the graph using Business Object.
But the requirment is the EXCEL OUTPUT with GRAPH or chart.

Get your data into an ALV GRID (OO --NOT THE OLD SLIS FUNCTION MODULE VERSION)
and a Toolbar with Transfer to EXCEL button on it.
*Click on the EXCEL button you created and the Popup prompt will give you options of a Pivot table amongst others.*
*The EXCEL spreadsheet will be displayed in the Foreground with the pivot table options you want*
*From here just use the Chart Wizard (built into EXCEL) to get your chart.*
*You can of course save etc. On exit from excel you are returned to the GRID where you can EXIT or perform further functions.*
*You probably could use excel macros to generate a graph / chart automatically -- the EXCEL prompt also allows you to run macros --you need to see the popup to understand what I'm trying to post here --but I haven't tried that option yet.*

You might be able to use FM 'ALV_XXL_CALL' directly but you need to be aware that the field catalog is slightly different which is why you need FM 'LVC_TRANSFER_TO_KKBLO' to convert your ALV GRID field catalog to the one required by the XXL call.

Converting Excel 2010 charts creates duplicate pages

Anyone else have this problem? I am using Microsoft Office 2010 and Acrobat Pro X
1. Create a Microsoft Excel 2010 file, throw in some data, and create at least 2 charts (column, line, pie... doesn't matter)
2. Select a chart and under the Chart Tools > Design tab, click "Move Chart Location" to move both of these charts to their own dedicated SHEET.
3. You should now have two new tabs along the bottom for the charts. Select both of the tabs by clicking the first tab, holding SHIFT, and clicking the second tab. *
4. Go to the Acrobat tab and click "Create PDF." Chart 1 and Chart 2 should already appear in the "Sheets in PDF" box, so go ahead and click "Convert to PDF" You should end up with a 2 page PDF..... right?
5. Hey Presto! A 4 page document! (Try this with THREE charts... you get a NINE page document. Four charts? You guessed it, 16 pages.)
* NOTE: This problem only occurs if you select the tabs by the method described in Step 3. If you select only ONE tab, and then select the worksheets using the Acrobat dialog box, it seems to work fine. So, yeah, there is a workaround... but it seems like something that should work either way, right?

I don't want to beat a dead horse here but... anyone have any insight on this? Can anyone else duplicate this problem? Is this a bug that might be fixed in the future?
Thanks

Axis Field filter only appearing in Legend of Pivot Chart

I was referred here after posting the following on the Office Excel user forum (answers.microsoft.com) I hope I provide all you need, but of course I can provide further details if needed. I am on Windows 7 using Excel 2010.
Okay here goes! (thanks in advance for any direction you can provide)
I was creating a PivotChart where I wanted to be able to filter the chart based on the fields I dropped into the "Axis Fields (Categories)" areas section of my PivotTable. This was working fine until I added the filters as slicers, decided
I didn't like them, and deleted them. Now when I try to view the filter boxes, they will only appear as part of the legend. I do not want to show the legend as it has too many values. I would like to revert to the original behavior of showing the Axis Field
Buttons at the bottom of the chart, where they appeared originally (Without being associated with the chart legend).
Anyone know how to restore this behavior?
It works this way on other chart types, like line and bar. But it no longer works on the type of chart I wanted to use which is a Pie chart. I have opened new instances of Excel and tried to create a Pivot Chart Pie chart and get the same results:
the axis fields are associated with the chart legend, instead of being available independently.
Any help that can be provided would be appreciated
Thanks!!

I guess you may want to let the Pivot chart shows like the screenshot below:
If so, you need to add a new column(Equal to the field which you want to put into the AXIS field) to source data, then in the Pivot Table, put this field to the FILTERS .
This was working fine until I added the filters as slicers, decided I didn't like them, and deleted them
I don't think this operation you did would change any behavior. Perhaps you can upload this file to a file sharing site and then share the link with us.

How to NOT return MSQuery results in a table in Excel 2010

In Excel 2010, I only have the options to return my query results in a table, pivot table, or both. If I convert the resulting table to a range, I lose the query. Why am I restricted to using a table?
I want to return the results into a spreadsheet and retain the query like I could in 2003. I want to be able to layout and format as I want. I want to be able to enter criteria in a cell and have the query return the proper results.
I am querying via ODBC sources against SQL and Redbrick databases. I was able to do this in 2003. Is the option still available? Am I not finding it?

Hi Bet_T,
What do you have against getting the results in a table as opposed to a non-
formatted range? There are quite some advantages a table has over a regular range of cells, like automatic expansion when used as the source of a chart or a pivot table.
You should still be able to add parameters to cells.

Excel Trying to Load PowerPivot Add-in (version 11.1.3129.0) for Excel 2010 even after Uninstalltion of the Add-in.

Hi all,
I am trying to Package and deploy Powerpivot Add-in for Excel 2010. I have the Powerpivot_X86_(11.1.329.0) .MSI which installs Unattended, but Uninstallation will not remove entry from COM ADD-IN list in Excel and at first re-launch (even after
Power Pivot Uninstallation) it will try to load Powerpivot add-in and will give an error.
Downloading file.///c:/Program files (x86)/Microsoft analysis services/AS Excel Client/110/Microsoft.AnalysisServices.XLHost.Addin.VSTO did not succeed.
this above path is the [InstallDir] which gets wiped off with the unistallation of the .MSI. So, before uninstallation,I stop the excel process and am running a script to delete HKCU Add-in Reg key entries.
and also, I thought it may be implicitly loading the add-in from folder such as,
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\XLstart
%appdata%\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART
but nothing is installed there.
Second Issue
when I re-install,
it doesn't automatically show up in the Excel ribbon (even after reboot and even if regeistries are created at the same location) but instead we should add it through COM ADD-IN list in Excel Manually.
Appreciate any idea's and suggestion's.
P.S
is it possible to make it completely installed per system rather having user entries?

Guys, I think I solved the
issue:
Symptoms
1. Power Pivot SQL 2012 32-bit installed over the old version without
deinstalling it
2. Installed with a user with administrator rights
3. It worked under the profile with admin rights, it didn't work under the
normal users w/o admin rights and threw this error message: Downloading file.///c:/Program files (x86)/Microsoft analysis services/AS Excel Client/10/Microsoft.AnalysisServices.XLHost.Addin.VSTO
did not succeed.
4. In the admin profile, it went to the path "110": C:/Program
Files (x86)/Microsoft Analysis Services/AS Excel
Client/110/Microsoft.AnalysisServices.Modeler.FieldList.vsto
5. In the normal profile, it went to the - wrong - "10" path:
C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Analysis Services/AS Excel
Client/10/Microsoft.AnalysisServices.Modeler.FieldList.vsto
SOLUTION
1. ADMIN: Installed VSTO 4.0
2. ADMIN: Checked if the .NET Programmability Support was installed - it was -
if not, install it!
3. NORMAL USER: Create a .reg file (Backup your registry before!) and
use it UNDER THE NORMAL USER!!!
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Excel][HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Excel\Addins][HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Excel\Addins\Microsoft.AnalysisServices.Modeler.FieldList]
"Description"="Microsoft SQL Server PowerPivot for Microsoft Excel"
"FriendlyName"="PowerPivot for Excel"
"LoadBehavior"=dword:00000003
"Manifest"="C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Analysis Services\\AS
Excel Client\\110\\Microsoft.AnalysisServices.XLHost.Addin.vsto|vstolocal"
"CartridgePath"="C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Analysis
Services\\AS OLEDB\\110\\Cartridges\\"
4. NORMAL USER: Rename the registry key
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\User Settings\Microsoft.AnalysisServices.Modeler.FieldList"
into
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\User
Settings\Microsoft.AnalysisServices.Modeler.FieldList_old"
5. NORMAL USER: Start up Power Pivot and it should
work now!
Analysis
IMHO the issue lies in the fact, that the Power Pivot
installer creates two problems:
The first issue is that the path to the add-in under
the NORMAL user is simply wrong and points to a wrong location (the
"10" in the path). In the admin profile, where it was originally
installed, it points to the "110" path which is correct.
The second issue is that the installation procedure
somehow needs to create a registry key (the one under point 4 in the solution)
to complete it self and if this key already exists it fails to install and
throws up weird error messages. If you delete or rename this key, it is created
again (exactly in the same way) but then everything works out.
Hope this
helps!
