Hi,
I'm getting the "Run-time error '5': Invalid Procedure call or argument at the line below in blue: PT1.ChangePivotCache ThisWorkbook.PivotCaches.Create(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:=PTSourceRngFcst, Version:=6)

These are the values of the cells listed in the code:
G24 = \\hguwarps03\WarrenData\Finance\MANAGEMENT_REPORTS\Reforecast 2019\P06_19-Jun Reforecast\
G25 = fncl-analysis-data_May-29.xlsx
G26 = L:\Finance\MANAGEMENT_REPORTS\Reforecast 2019\P06_19-Jun Reforecast\[fncl-analysis-data_May-29.xlsx]fncl-analysis-data

Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!

If rng refers to the range that you want to use for the pivot cache that's probably what you should be using, why not give it a try?:)

I got the same error message: Run-time error '5': Invalid Procedure call or argument at the same line: PT1.ChangePivotCache ThisWorkbook.PivotCaches.Create(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:=rng, Version:=6)

Excel Facts

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.
