Keyboard Shortcut Notes
A few details on using the pivot table keyboard shortcuts.
Select Pivot Table Range
To select the entire pivot table body (not the report filter range), select any cell in the body of the pivot table, and use one of the following shortcuts
- Ctrl + A
- Ctrl + * (on the number keypad)
- Ctrl + Shift + 8 (number at top of keyboard)
NOTE: If a cell in the Report Filter range is selected, that range will be selected, and none of the pivot table body range cells.
Create Calculated Field
To open the Calculated Field dialog box, select any field in the Values area, then press Chtr + Shift + = (equal sign)
Create Calculated Item
To open the Calculated Item dialog box, select the Row or Column field heading where you want to add the item, then press Chtr + Shift + = (equal sign)
NOTE: If you select a Row or Column item, instead of a heading, a calculated item will be added automatically. In the screen shot below, "Formula1" was created.
Group Pivot Items
To group pivot items, select them on the worksheet, then press Alt + Shift + Right Arrow
The selected pivot items can be in adjacent cells, as in the screen shot below, or non-adjacent cells (select the first cell, then press the Ctrl key while selecting additional pivot item cells)
Ungroup Pivot Items
To ungroup pivot items, select one or more groups on the worksheet, then press Alt + Shift + Left Arrow
The selected grouped pivot items can be in adjacent cell, or non-adjacent cells (select the first cell, then press the Ctrl key while selecting additional pivot item cells)
Notes:
Blank cells between the selected groups will be ignored.
If all groups in the same grouping level are ungrouped, the grouping level will disappear. Otherwise, the ungrouped items are shown in the grouping level, individually. For example, Group1 was ungrouped, so Bars and Cookies are shown individually, along with the remaining group, Group2.
