    Pivot Tables Design

    Hello!

    Can anyone tell me how can I format a Pivot Table with 5 levels. I try to use the "Design" but it only format the first 2 levels of the Pivot Table. I need to distinguish each level with different colors. I think manually is a bit difficult.

    Thank you for your reply!

    If you open the file in attach you understand what I mean by 5 levels. As you can see in the example, only the first level (Level A) is formated, as well the other sublevels. This is very useful to distinguish the levels when you have a lot of data. The problem is that I don't know how can I do that. The only way is format line by line?

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    This can be done by duplicating the current in-built designs and modifying them. Please go through the following URL and the attachments for more details on this.

    Hi,

    As far as can understand, the maximum of Row SubHeadings that I can format is 3. If I have 5 Row SubHeadings, like the example, how can I format the last 2?

    Regards
    Pedro

    IIRC, subheadings 2 and 3 simply repeat. There is no option to add more.
    Everyone who confuses correlation and causation ends up dead.

    That's what I suspect.
    Thank you all for the answers.
