问题
I have written several Subs to show/hide fields in a PivotTable. Now I am trying to do the same with a calculated field, but I get an error when hiding it. I took my code from the recorder and the recorder's code also halts on the last line. I googled the error message, without serious result.
Sub PrRemove()
'remove PR
Dim pt As PivotTable
Set pt = ActiveSheet.PivotTables("MyPivot")
pt.PivotFields("MyField").Orientation = xlHidden '<- here is the error
End Sub
The same code works fine if MyField is a normal field (not a calculated one).
I am using Excel 2007 with SP2.
Any clue ?
EDIT on 17 June 2010: I also tried using pt.DataFields instead of pt.PivotFields, with exactly the same behaviour. The error message says "Unable to set the orientation of the PivotField class".

Well, I will give you the confirmation you need. It seems using the Orientation property on a "Calulated Field" just does not work, and I would have to agree this is a bug and not a common "usage" error. I was able to duplicate "hiding/showing" the field without having to remove ("Delete") the calculated field. This allows the user to physically drag the calculated field from the field list after you have progammatically "hidden" the field. This is not a bad solution because it duplicates the user-interface. (Using Excel 2003.)

Most likely you cannot hide this item because it is the last visible item. Instead, try removing it.

after much hair pulling i have found a workaround. if you add more than one pivot field (calculated or otherwise) excel creates a grouped field called Values. you can set the orientation property of PivotField("Values") to xlHidden and it bullets both fields. So if you want to remove a calculated field, just add a non-calculated field, set PivotField("Values").orientation to xlHidden and you're done.
nobody said it would be pretty...
回答3:
With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivottableName").PivotFields("Values")
.PivotItems("CalcFieldName").Visible = False
End With

I wanted to easily remove data fields (calculated fields or not), like it would be done manually.
And I finally found this solution (Excel 2010) :
Set pt = ActiveSheet.PivotTables("mypivottable")
For Each pi In pt.DataPivotField.PivotItems
pi.Visible = False
Next

Here is a little workaround I discovered today, again not very elegant but at least it doesn't need much code, it will hide ALL the fields and you will need to reshow the ones you want after:
objTable.DataPivotField.Orientation = xlHidden
You may run into an error if excel for some reason thinks the datapivotfield is empty, but to fix this just add in another field as a datafield right before the above statement. Also make sure its the letter l not the number 1 in xlHidden vba's default font has them looking very very similar.
Happy Coding
回答6:
It seems that to hide a calculated field you need to first hide a pivot field called "Values".
PivotTable(1).PivotFields("Values").Orientation = xlHidden
For Each PF In PT.DataFields
PF.Orientation = xlHidden
Next PF
I'm assuming that field only seem to exist if you've got two or more fields in your xlDataField position.
Thanks Alinboss for pointing me in the right direction. I was sure I tried your method before and failed - turns out the order is important!
P.s. Your code still does not work with only one calculated data field
回答7:
Laurent Bosc's code checks out so I voted it up. My full code includes adding data after hiding it all. The code is placed on Sheet1(Sheet1).
Private Sub Refresh_Pivot()
Dim NewMetric As String
Dim pt As PivotTable, objDataField As Object
NewMetric = "your_custom_metric"
'-------update pivot table 1, hide all elements including calculated field----
Application.EnableEvents = False
Set pt = Sheet1.PivotTables("PivotTable1")
For Each Pi In pt.DataPivotField.PivotItems
Pi.Visible = False
Next
'--------add a new data field to the pivot table----------------------------
With pt
.AddDataField.PivotFields(NewMetric), "Sum of " & NewMetric, xlSum
End With
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

I don't think this is an excel bug, I think it's a 'feature'. ;-)
Re: @AMissico, there is no problem in excel hiding all of the fields in a pivot table, but he may be talking about items - you can't hide the last item in a pivot field.
This is the code I routinely use to do what you are trying to do. These macros were developed on Excel 2002 & 2003. I don't hide CalculatedFields, I delete them.
' Hide all fields.
' @param ThePivotTable to operate upon.
Sub HidePivotFields(ByVal ThePivotTable As PivotTable)
Dim pField As PivotField
For Each pField In ThePivotTable.CalculatedFields
pField.Delete
Next pField
For Each pField In ThePivotTable.PivotFields
pField.Orientation = xlHidden
Next pField
Set pField = Nothing
End Sub
' Removes FieldName data from ThePivotTable
Sub HideField(ByVal ThePivotTable As PivotTable, _
ByVal FieldName As String)
If FieldExists(ThePivotTable, FieldName) = True And _
CalculatedFieldExists(ThePivotTable, FieldName) = False Then
ThePivotTable.PivotFields(FieldName).Orientation = xlHidden
End If
End Sub
' Returns True if FieldName exists in ThePivotTable
'
' @param ThePivotTable to operate upon.
' @param FieldName the name of the specific pivot field.
Function FieldExists(ByVal ThePivotTable As PivotTable, _
ByVal FieldName As String) As Boolean
Dim pField As PivotField
For Each pField In ThePivotTable.PivotFields
If pField.SourceName = FieldName Then
FieldExists = True
Exit For
End If
Next pField
Set pField = Nothing
End Function
' Checks if the field FieldName is currently a member of the
' CalculatedFields Collection in ThePivotTable.
' @return True if a CalculatedField has a SourceName matching the FieldName
' @return False otherwise
Function CalculatedFieldExists(ByVal ThePivotTable As PivotTable, _
ByVal FieldName As String) As Boolean
Dim pField As PivotField
CalculatedFieldExists = False
For Each pField In ThePivotTable.CalculatedFields
If pField.SourceName = FieldName Then
CalculatedFieldExists = True
End If
Next pField
Set pField = Nothing
End Function
' Returns a Pivot Field reference by searching through the source names.
'
' This function is a guard against the user having changed a field name on me.
' @param ThePivotTable to operate upon.
' @param FieldName the name of the specific pivot field.
Function GetField(ByVal ThePivotTable As PivotTable, _
ByVal FieldName As String) As PivotField
Dim pField As PivotField
For Each pField In ThePivotTable.PivotFields
If pField.Name <> "Data" Then
If pField.SourceName = FieldName Then
Set GetField = pField
Exit For
End If
End If
Next pField
Set pField = Nothing
End Function
' Counts the number of currently visible pivot items in a field.
' @param ThePivotItems the collection of pivot itemns in a field.
' @return the count of the visible items.
Function PivotItemCount(ByVal ThePivotItems As PivotItems) As Long
Dim pItem As PivotItem
Dim c As Long
For Each pItem In ThePivotItems
If pItem.Visible = True Then c = c + 1
Next pItem
PivotItemCount = c
Set pItem = Nothing
End Function
' Hides a single pivot item in a pivot field, unless it's the last one.
' @param FieldName pivot field containing the pivot item.
' @param ItemName pivot item to hide.
Sub HidePivotItem(ByVal ThePivotTable As PivotTable, _
ByVal FieldName As String, _
ByVal ItemName As String)
Dim pField As PivotField
Set pField = GetField(ThePivotTable, FieldName)
If Not pField Is Nothing Then
If PivotItemCount(pField.PivotItems) > 1 Then
pField.PivotItems(ItemName).Visible = False
End If
End If
Set pField = Nothing
End Sub

I am having the exact same problem as you. It looks like I'm going to have to delete the calculated field and readd it rather than hiding/showing it.
回答10:
I accidentally discovered a workaround to this the first time I attempted to hide a calculated field, so thought I would share it here:
Instead of modifying the orientation property, you can instead instruct the code to select the cell in the pivot table that contains the title of the calculated field you want to hide, and then delete the selection. This works as long as you have another datafield already in the table. Example below:
Scenario: Pivot table covers the range A1:G10. Calculated field "Margin" is already in the table, and you want to add the data field "Sales" and remove the "Margin" calc field.
Code to execute:
'Add Sales data field
ActiveSheet.PivotTables(Pname).AddDataField ActiveSheet.PivotTables( _
Pname).PivotFields("SALES"), "Sum of SALES", xlSum
'At this point, the datafield titles are in vertically adjacent rows, named "Sum
'of Margin" and "Sum of Sales" at locations B3 and B4 respectively.
'Remove the "Sum of Margin" calculated field
Range("B3").Delete
Not sure why this works, but I'm glad we at least have this to work with!
回答11:
Fortunately there is a very easy way to hide a datafield. You were all wrong mistakeing pivotfields with datafields. I'm presenting a piece of code that empties a pivot table no matter how many pivot fields/data fields were initially in the pivot :
Sub Macro1()
Dim p As PivotTable
Dim f As PivotField
Set p = ActiveSheet.PivotTables(1)
For Each f In p.PivotFields
If f.Orientation <> xlHidden Then
f.Orientation = xlHidden
End If
Next f
For Each f In p.DataFields
If f.Orientation <> xlHidden Then
f.Orientation = xlHidden
End If
Next f
End Sub
回答12:
Have you changed the name of the calculated field? Was it originally 'Sum of MyField'? Try looking at the SourceName property and if it's different using that.
Have you tried pt.CalculatedFields("MyField").Orientation = xlHidden ?

I know it is kind of late, but i see that this problem has not been answered confidently yet and i was facing the same problem having hard time to find useful info. So, i hope this post may help somebody...
If you have your data stored in data model, then instead of PivotFields, use CubeFields . I had the same problem and i experimented with a simple workbook which did not had a data model and my code worked perfectly (using PivotFields). It only returned error in the workbook with the data model. So, i made this change and boom! it worked! My suggestion is to use the following code:
Sub PrRemove()
'remove PR
Dim pt As PivotTable
Set pt = ActiveSheet.PivotTables("MyPivot")
pt.CubeFields("MyField").Orientation = xlHidden '<- here is the error
End Sub
