Power Pivot

Hi Jens,

As discussed with you yesterday, I was wondering whether you could please give me some guidance on how I could use Power Pivot to amalgamate separate tables from a number of tabs in an excel spreadsheet into one table in one worksheet?

I will have the tables set in Dynamic range, and all the columns have been set up identically.

Many thanks,

Han

RE: Power Pivot

Hi Han,

Thank you for the forum question.

You will of course need to download and install the PowerPivot add-in to Excel 2010.

If you click on the link below you will find a nice description what to do. It will only work if you have the data in external workbooks. If you prefer to keep the data in the same workbook as the merged table it can be done using Excel VBA, but the it will not be updated without you are running the code.

The link below is an example using VBA to merge Worksheets:

Please let me know if it is not working with you data or if you need more guidance.


Kind regards

Excel tip:

Make macros work in newer versions of Excel

If you have created macros in Excel 97 or 2000 that you want to be able to use in 2002/XP or 2003, you may need to alter the macro security settings in the newer version of Excel you are using.

To do this, go to Tools - Options - Security.

Select Macro Security and change the security setting to Low.

Tick the boxes next to 'Trust Add-ins' and 'Trust Visual Basic' and click OK.

After you have restarted Windows, you should then be able to use your macros created in earlier versions of Excel.
