    Pivot Table help please

    I'm doing my homework right now, and I created a pivot table, but having a bit of difficulty. Here is what it tells me to do....

    "...pivot tablet that calculates the number and average salaries by position."

    I had no problem included in the table the average salaries by position, however I can't figure out how to calculate the number as well. It's apparently supposed to be another column since the instructions tell me to change the label above 'count' to 'number'.

    So how would I do this?

    Drag the salary down to the values box a SECOND time. In this one, show the COUNT instead of the Average.

    Did that help? I think Number = Count in this problem.
    One test is worth a thousand opinions.
