Analyze the Data in Different Ways

After the wizard creates the PivotTable, you can change the layout so that products are displayed across the columns, and sales representatives are listed down each row. Unlike a Microsoft Access table, the PivotTable is dynamic; you can transpose its rows and columns to see different summaries of the data.

You edit the table in Microsoft Excel by clicking the Edit PivotTable button on the form. The PivotTable opens in a separate window with Microsoft Excel commands and toolbars displayed.

Finished editing in Microsoft Excel?   Click Exit (File menu) to save your changes and return to Microsoft Access. Want to reactivate Microsoft Excel for further editing?   Open the Microsoft Access form, and then double-click the PivotTable.
