    Maybe you need to reduce the processing overhead.

    Try running my optimise subroutine

    work with your pivot table

    run deoptimise.

    Sub optimise()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
    Application.EnableEvents = False
    Application.DisplayStatusBar = False
    'Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
    ActiveSheet.DisplayPageBreaks = False
    End Sub

    Sub Deoptimise()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    Application.DisplayAlerts = True
    Application.EnableEvents = True
    Application.DisplayStatusBar = True
    'Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
    ActiveSheet.DisplayPageBreaks = True
    End Sub
