How do you deal with an error message pivot table created in a later version of Excel and can not be updated?
Unfortunatly, you will need to find a more current version of Excel to access the pivot table. After you do, save the file in compatible format for older version of Excel. Then you should be able to open the file and update the pivot table. However, if someone created the pivot table with Excel 2007 and used any of the new features, those features will be lost when you save in Excel 2003 format.
