    How do I set permanent secondary axis in PivotTable chart?

    Hi, I have problem about PivotTable chart. Now I have already set secondary
    axis in my PivotTable chart, they appear by line type.But the secondary axis
    will disappear when I drill down from some dimensions. for example, the first
    axis is A, the secondary is B. When I drill down from year to month, B will
    disappear. I have to reset B as secondary axis. Do you have some ways or
    options to set permanet secondary axis in PivotTable chart?
    thanks.

    Unfortunately, pivot tables and pivot charts lose their formatting when they are
    updated. Even MS admits this is an issue. You could record a macro while you
    reformat your chart, then rerun the macro after updating the pivot chart.

    I don't have a generic macro for this, every situation is different. Recording a few
    macros like this, and figuring out how they work, is probably a good way to get started.
