    Pivot sort by date field without actually showing it

    Hi all,

    Anyone have a solution to sorting a list of - well, anything, but let's say cities - by the date field *without actually selecting or showing the date field* ...?

    Or hiding it somehow ...??

    Or using a "helper" field of some sort ..???

    Thanks in advance,

    - Mik

    I can imagine that this might be done using Power Query as opposed to a pivot table.
    Might help if we could see some source data and then manually constructed output as an example to go by.
    Let us know if you have any questions.
    Consider taking the time to add to the reputation of everybody that has taken the time to respond to your query.

    Thanks for the reply.

    Much as I'd like to be, am not operationally familiar with Power Query.

    Will put some time into looking at the tutorials.
