    Unable to Set Title of First Column in Pivot Table

    Greetings (again),

    I am unable to set the column heading of the first column in my pivot table, is this possible?

    I have my data grouped by the year, so I want to add the heading "Year" to that column.

    When I attempt to, I receive the error message "Cannot change this part of a PivotTable report."

    Thanks again!

    the top left cell of a PT seems to not be accessable, but you should be able to change the title of the "year" column
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools

    Right clicking in the column for the years, and selecting "Field Settings", the Field Settings dialog is displayed, which shows the custom name of "Year", but the custom name is not displayed in the PT.
