Hello
I'm having trouble trying to format dates in the Row fields in a Pivot Table. The source data is set to mmm-yy but the pivot table converts this to dd-mmm-yy. Need to retain the mmm-yy format.
Thanks in anticipation

Hi David,
How do you converting the date format in pivot table... are you selecting the date range in pivot or are you changing it through field settings / properties.
Also just as a check what is the default date setting of your system?

Hi DavidBW,
I'd need a sample workbook to see what your data looks like to try to help on this question. Click on "Go Advanced" below the message area and then on the Paper Clip Icon above the advanced message area to attache a sample file.
One test is worth a thousand opinions.

Dilipandey, I tried both. As this is a row field rather than a data field I can't adjust the format through field settings.
Marvin, I will try to upload a file, just a load of confidential data I have to strip out unfortunately
Thank you both for helping

Sorted. I had formatted the whole column of the source data (including the column heading) to mmm-yy where this should have only been for the dates themselves.
Thanks for looking anyway.
