I understand you can use the StudioX Create pivot table in regular Studio…
It looks to have better features around the result you would get out i.e. Field/Is a multiple options etc…
I’ve been really struggling to get it to work in regular Studio, I’ve looked through all the StudioX tutorials trying to figure it out and then realised someone “OUT THERE” in Forumland will have already figured it out…

"W:\Reports\Robot" + Filename
I’m just struggling to use it/get the right syntax in the StudioX create pivot table, but within Studio…
In StudioX the Source : [ExcelFilename] Sheet1!A:E
(whereas the “ExcelFilename” is picked up from the Reference box in the StudioX Use Excel File activity)
In Studio most references have to be surrounded by Quotes or braces… I have tried a lot of variations but am still getting Compiler errors in the Source and Destination box within the create Pivot Table StudioX activity…

@DawnW - This is the Pivot table which I built in StudioX. I have opened that file in Studio and this is what I got…You can see All the excel.sheet and excel.table as automatically added since I opened it in Studio
You can ignore Format as table activity if it’s not required…
Yay… It worked to create it and get it working in StudioX and then open it in Studio…
That is a great tip, that I will use and also pass onto others in the future…
The StudioX activity is so much more powerful from choice of columns/rows etc…
