In Excel 2013 I am using an INDEX function to populate a column with ticker symbols that appear in a pivot table. I find that when I do this it is also pulling in the categories that each ticker appears under - for example "Consumer Discretionary". I do not want to pull the category in at all. I only want a list of the tickers.
How would I be able to do this? Maybe INDEX is the incorrect Excel function to use.
I'm guessing you have something as on the left, which can be changed to as in the middle by clicking in the PT, DESIGN > Layout - Report Layout, Show in Tabular Form. The subtotals might then be removed for a result as on the right:
The row labels may be repeated ("filled in") under Field Settings, if desired.
