"Invalid procedure call or argument" when using a Macro

Hello everyone on MrExcel,
I thank in advance anyone that will help me resolve my problem. At work my collegue uses the below Macro to extract data from an Excel generated by a program (HP Quality Center, in postprocessing). For some reason, the Macro works for him but not for me. He uses Excel 2007 and I use Excel 2013.

When running the Macro, Visual Basic gives the following error "Invalid procedure call or argument". I have tried a multitude of fixes I found online like taking in/out ' and ", emptying the Tabledestination field, changing the pivot table version and many other things. I am not proficient with VBA at all so I don't know where else to put my hands beside where the debugger tells me to.

Does anyone know how I can fix this? I cannot thank enough the person that can fix this as I currently need to do everything manually and it takes forever. I have two more scripts for two other macros but the code is very similar so I think I'll be able to fix them myself once we find a solution for this one.

Thank you all!

Code:
Sub QC_PostProcessing()Dim MainWorksheet As Worksheet
' Make sure your worksheet name matches!
Set MainWorksheet = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Query1")
Dim DataRange As Range
Set DataRange = MainWorksheet.UsedRange
' Now that you have the data in DataRange you can process it.
