(How) Can you auto outline pivot tables? I'm using Excel 2003. I want to send the information to non-excel experts and need them to be able easily to view it at different levels. I know that to auto outline you really need a formula at the bottom of some rows of data. Pivot tables don't have formulas, but excel must know where the totals rows are as it creates them. Using the standard Data/Group and outline/Auto outline with either the whole table or selected rows gives me a "Cannot create an outline" message. Is there an easy way to do it?

Thanks
