Default pivot table

I have some cells that show up as "(blank)".. i want the
cells to stay in the pivot table but I don't want it to
say "blank"... i just want an empty cell.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

You could hide the (blank) entries with conditional formatting:

1. Select the cells in the pivot table
2. Choose FormatConditional Formatting
3. Leave the first dropdown as Cell Value Is
4. From the centre dropdown, choose Equal to
5. In the text box, type (Blank)
6. Click the Format button
7. On the Font tab, choose white (or appropriate colour)
to match the cell background
8. Click OK, click OK
