Methods

GetPivotData - Returns a Range object with information about a data item in a PivotTable report.


Dim rngGetPivotData As Range
Set rngGetPivotData = ActiveCell.PivotTable.GetPivotData()

AddDataField - Adds a data field to a PivotTable report. Returns a PivotField object that represents the new data field.

ChangeConnection - Changes the connection of the specified PivotTable object.

ChangePivotCache - Changes the PivotCache object of the specified PivotTable.

ClearAllFilters - The ClearAllFilters method deletes all filters currently applied to the PivotTable. This includes deleting all filters in the PivotFilters collection, removing any manual filtering applied, and setting all PivotFields in the Report Filter area to the default item.

ClearTable - The ClearTable method is used for clearing a PivotTable. Clearing PivotTables includes removing all the fields and deleting all filtering and sorting applied to the PivotTables. This method resets the PivotTable to the state it had right after it was created, before any fields were added to it.
