Hi,

I need to use GETPIVOTDATA to extract dates from a pivot table so that I use the NETWORKDAYS function to get the number of working days between two dates.

I am having problems with GETPIVOTDATA as I don't seem to be able to get it to auto-populate.

I have checked that obtain GETPIVOTDATA is checked in the pivot table analyse>options.

When I put a = into a cell and the select a cell within the pivot table all I get is the cell reference in the cell.  

Is there something else that can prevent auto-populate of the function please? 

I have attached a small example sheet with the table, pivot and the cell that I have selected.

GETPIVOTDATA works with items you placed in the Values area. Perhaps the attached file helps you on your way.

Thanks very much Riny. Both for explaining why I wasn't able to get pivot data to work and for taking it that one stage further!  Laugh
