Hi Debra.. thanks for the informative video and tips on trapping for Pivot Table refresh errors. I'm studying VBA right now and so your worksheet and code to generate the the Pivot Table List.. both basic and detailed is gold. I'm learning a lot just walking through the code to see how you put it together. Thanks for that and all your useful and helpful videos and advice. Thumbs up!

Hello, I am learning about macros so this is a very basic question and at this point, I am not ready to create my own. The challenge: my pivot tables won't refresh because it is pointing to a specific overlapping pivot table by number and I have about 100 pivot tables in my spreadsheet and don't want to go through each of them each time I have to refresh my data. Is there a way I can copy your macro into my spreadsheet and get it to identify problems with my pivot tables? And if so, how would I apply it to my worksheet? I appreciate any assistance you can give me. thank you.

Hi, I have a report where I want to see YoY but the YoY period is from 01.11.2017 - 13.03.2018 vs. 01.11.2018 - 13.03.2019 (for 5000 lines of data). How do you do this for this type of period? I can only find YoY for Year, not a specific period of time when I try to group. Thank you very much for your help if you can refer me to a video that can help or if you have any tips :)
