Default Formating a Pivoting Chart


I have a pivoting line graph. If I change the colors of
the lines, they change back to the default every time I
pivot. Does anyone know how to perserve the formats when
I pivot to new data???

Thanks
Jon

Default Re: Formating a Pivoting Chart

Loss of formatting is a known problem with pivot charts. There's
information in the following MSKB article, which suggests recording a
macro as you apply the formatting:
