1004 error with ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Add

I am trying to build a macro to be placed in a blank spreadsheet for use as a template. My development platform is Excel 2003 on Windows XP SP2. The script was initially recorded as a macro against a single data file with absolute range references and worked both on my develpment platform and on the production platform (Excel 2000 on Windows 2000). However, I have been having fits trying to convert it to dynamic addressing for the PivotCaches.Add. I develop Excel solutions a few times a year and this pivot table is the deepest I have dug into OLE code, so I am not an expert and could have a simple problem. I included the entire macro because I am unsure if there are sideeffects to what some of it is doing. I am getting a 1004 error "The PivotTable field is not valid. To create a PivotTable report, you must use data that is organized as a list with labeled columns. If you are changing the name of a PivotTable field, you must type a new name for the field."

Since I do not get this error with the absolute references, I am puzzled as to what to fix. That is another reason for supplying the entire macro:
