I have a pivot table with different sections and each need to have a different number format. I can easily do it by selecting the section value of each section and changing the number format to the desired one. However, when I refresh the Pivot Table the number formats revert back to the original format.
I read that to make the changes permanent we need to select the whole values section by going Options/Select/Entire Pivot Table/Select/Values. However these changes are applied to the whole values section and, as far as I can see, cannot be narrowed down to one specific section.
Is there a way to achieve what I'm trying to do? (ie change format for each section that won't be lost upon refresing the PT).
I'm running Excel 2010.
