I already tried that method, it works only for the current PivotTable next
time I create a new one I have to manually change it again. perhaps it's the
only way to set it up.
thank you

On the Options tab pf the PivotTable Tools, the leftmost group, PivotTable,
click Options, then click Options. In that dialog, click the "Display" tab,
and use the 4th checkbox, "Classic Picottable layout"

I want to know how can I set the default for the classic Pivottable layout in

the Classic Pivottable layout, didn't work. ~thank you
