    Pivot Table Headings

    I have a pivot table populated from a source to which I have no access (the source is password protected, and someone else updates my pivot weekly). My problem is that one field I bring in has these as titles:

    The 01 through 12 denote expenses by month throughout the year. I'd like to have the pivot display these as month names. Given my limited access to the data, how could I go about doing that?

    Can you not just edit the text in the row field of the pivot table?

    Never mind. And thank you.

    Hi,

    How about a VLOOKUP() column of cells outside but adjacent to the 01, 02 etc, month number references. Create a two column table of month number ref and month name for use in the VLOOKUP()

    HTH
