Ever since I have learned the tables feature in Excel 2007, I have fallen in love with that. They are so awesome and so user friendly.
Here is a simple, yet very effective feature of Excel Tables that will show table header row even when you scroll down. The header row is shown in the place of column headings (the place where you see A,B,C,D etc.).
For eg. if you have the superhero details in a table,when you scroll down, this is what you will see:
This is a good alternative for freeze panes option in Excel. However there are few limitations,
- You must select a cell in the table when you scroll to see column headers
- Only headers are shown. Not filters.

4 Responses to “Currency format Pivot fields with one click [Friday VBA]”
As in your example, I often find myselve having to format numbers as kU, MU,%, or increase/decrease decimals. In the PowerPivot utilities add-in, I have included several such formatting macros and made them available from the pivot table contextual menus. Thanks for you post. It reminds me that formatting as currency is *currently* missing.
The add-in is free and the vba code open.

I almost never format my pivot tables. I only format my final chart/table or whatever.
And when I do format them, I go the long distance. Keeps my clicking ability in shape. 🙂
I'm with GraH
I rarely if ever format PT's
Just hover your pointer on field header, it turns into down arrow then click. Entire pivot field gets selected then click on currency($) symbol from home ribbon or Press Ctrl + $(Ctrl + Shift + 4).
