Pivot Table: Mult Consolidation Ranges

[Guest]

I have an Excel Workbook with 2 sheets of data. Both sheets have identical
fields(column lablels). Basically, the only reason it is in 2 sheets is
because there are too many rows for one sheet.
I want to create a Pivot Table using the data from both sheets, but I want
it to appear exactly like a Pivot Table from a single sheet.
Meaning, when I create a Pivot Table of Multiple Consolidation Ranges of the
2 sheets, I do not have the same Pivot Table fields. I only have Column and
Data fields.
I want the Pivot table to have all of the fields that it would have if all
the data were on one page.
Is there something I am doing wrong? Or is it not possible to do this?

Thanks,

MT

You can create a Pivot Table from multiple consolidation ranges, but, as
you discovered, you won't get the same pivot table layout that you'd get
from a single range. There's an example here:

If possible, store your data in a single worksheet, or in a database,
and you'll have more flexibility in creating the pivot table.

You can use MS Query and create a union query of the two data sheets so that
the data can be brought into the pivot table together.
