Filtering data from one pivot table against another

[Guest]

I have multiple pivot tables and I want to carry over the selections from
Pivot table a to Pivot table B, so that the page fields are filtered
identically. Any ideas?

The following code is adapted from a posting by Robert Rosenberg. It
changes the second Pivot Table if the page is changed on the first PT.
You could revise it to suit your layout. As noted in the code, place the
code on the module for the worksheet which contains the Pivot Table
(right-click the sheet tab, choose View Code).

Dim pvt As PivotTable

Set pvt = Me.PivotTables(1)
Set pvt2 = Sheets("OtherPivot").PivotTables(1)
If LCase(pvt.PivotFields("Customer").CurrentPage) _
<> LCase(mvPivotPageValue) Then
'The Page Field was changed
Application.EnableEvents = False
pvt.RefreshTable
mvPivotPageValue = _
pvt.PivotFields("Customer").CurrentPage
pvt2.PageFields("Customer").CurrentPage _
= mvPivotPageValue
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If

Works great! Thank you.

Debra,

I spoke a little soon. It works as long as I change the page fields top to
bottom.

I have 4 different page fields I'm trying to perform this operation on. If
I go top to bottom it works fine, but if I change them out of order the upper
fields don't change.

Here is my code

<> LCase(mvPivotPageValue) Then
'The Page Field was changed
Application.EnableEvents = False
pvt.RefreshTable
mvPivotPageValue = _
pvt.PivotFields("Business Group").CurrentPage
pvt2.PageFields("Business Group").CurrentPage _
= mvPivotPageValue
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
If LCase(pvt.PivotFields("Business").CurrentPage) _
<> LCase(mvPivotPageValue) Then

pvt2.PageFields("Envelope").CurrentPage _

Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
If LCase(pvt.PivotFields("Product Family").CurrentPage) _
<> LCase(mvPivotPageValue) Then
'The Page Field was changed
Application.EnableEvents = False
pvt.RefreshTable
mvPivotPageValue = _
pvt.PivotFields("Product Family").CurrentPage
pvt2.PageFields("Product Family").CurrentPage _
= mvPivotPageValue
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
End Sub

I don't understand what you mean. Can you give an example of what's
happening, and what you expect to happen?
