I created the following formula for a dynamic range and I get an error when attempting to create my pivot table

=OFFSET(CURRENT!$A$1,0,0,COUNTA(CURRENT!$A:$A),COUNTA(CURRENT!$1:$1))

The error I get is as follows:
This command requires at least two rows of source data. You cannot use this command on a section in only one row.

A few of my columns don't have data...Could that be the problem.

[TABLE="width: 1019"]

Thanks for the help...

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.

Hey Mike,

Your formula looks fine - I just tried it & it works no problem.

I've pasted the data you included in your post into my workbook for a test (named the range 'top') & created a Pivot Table using the dataset 'top' with no issues.

Is there anything else?

Huh. I will try again when I get home in couple hours. Strange, because I'm doing sone thing wrong.

Thanks, James! Just got to work and tried the formula again. The only thing different, I used a different name for the 'dynamic range'. It worked.
