Its Back The Flattened Pivot Table – 2504

Posted on by Annie D

Laura from Nashville is looking for a way to make sure that all future pivot tables default to having No Subtotals. This *was* a feature in the PowerPivot Add-in back in Excel 2010, but then was removed. However, thanks to Pivot Table Defaults, you can force all future pivot tables into a flat pivot table that is ready for re-use.

Keep Leading Zeroes When Opening CSV – 2502

Posted on by Annie D

D on YouTube asks: How do I stop Excel from removing leading zeros when opening a file?
Changing a column from general to text does not work for me, as the “0” has already been removed.
09805 becomes 9805, for example.
The files I’m opening does not make it clear that the zero has been removed.
I’m working in spreadsheets with 200k rows.
So stopping Excel from removing them in the first place, would be preferable
