Index, Pivot Tables

How do you set the pivot table to be on classical view at all times

RE: Index, Pivot Tables

Hi Alhagie,

Thank you for the forum question.

You can set classic view for Pivot Tables to default. Then every time you create a new Pivot Table in will be the classic view.

1 Click the File tab and click Option bottom left
2 Click the Data option. Excel changes what is displayed in the Excel Options dialog box.
3 Click the Edit Default Layout button. Excel displays the Edit Default Layout dialog box.
4 Click the PivotTable Options button. Excel displays the PivotTable Options dialog box.
5 Make sure the Display tab is selected.
6 Click the Classic PivotTable Layout check box.
7 Click OK to dismiss the PivotTable Options dialog box.
8 Click Cancel to dismiss the Edit Default Layout dialog box.
9 Click Cancel to dismiss the Excel Options dialog box.

You can also see the steps if you use the link below. Ignore the VBA at the top. Scroll down approximately half the page and start from figure 1

Excel tip:

Missing Field handle

If your field handle goes missing all you need to do is go to tools > options > edit tab and then make sure that the check boxes for paste and insert buttons are checked.
