    Are you still using Excel 2013?

    What do you oerceive is inadequate in the PT you've already generated? Have you tried switching off totals and sub-totals in the layout options on the PT design ribbon?

    Re: Create a header row in Pivot table

    Thanks. That's very close to what I want. Is it possible to have 'region' as a header row only

    Don't think so with a PT but you could do it with 365 functions:

    Amazing!! Works well. I've never heard of 365 functions.
    Every day is a school day :-)
    Thanks for the quick response
