    Pivot Table issue --variance columns

    I've got this pivot table, and for column headers I've got different weeks, like 821/11-8/27/11. Each week the pivot table gets updated and a new column gets added, and I'm wondering if there's an easy way to get a variance column between each of them showing the variance between any two weeks. Since I'm not trying to find the variance between two different fields, I haven't had any luck using the Pivot Table formulas---each week is not a separate field in the data set that is used for the pivot. There's just a field called 'week', and the values of that field form the column headers in the table. Is there any way to do this easily inside the pivot table?

    To best describe or illustrate your problem you would be better off attaching a dummy workbook, the workbook should contain the same structure and some dummy data of the same type as the type you have in your real workbook - so, if a cell contains numbers & letters in this format abc-123 then that should be reflected in the dummy workbook.

    If needed supply a before and after sheet in the workbook so the person helping you can see what you are trying to achieve.

    Doing this will ensure you get the result you need!
    Where there is a will there are many ways.
