I have come to Bangalore to attend the TechEd 2010 conference by Microsoft. Today (April 13th), I will be speaking on “How to select the right chart for your data”. A short talk telling people how to choose the correct chart based on the message they want to convey. [You can see the schedule and profile here.]
I will share the presentation, video (if possible) with all of you once I come back from Bangalore. Meanwhile pls. note that I will be slow in replying to comments / email.
PS: Here is my visiting card which I made for this.
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).
