Please help with a solutions, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Isaac

Do you hate GETPIVOTDATA?
Prevent GETPIVOTDATA. Select inside a PivotTable. In the Analyze tab of the ribbon, open the dropown next to Options and turn it off
Almost certainly but that is not my area of expertise.

It is strictly against the forum rules to repost the same question but as your request is now somewhat different I suggest that you start a new thread.

Sorry for wasting your time.
