I'm not certain that this will work (but I don't know why it wouldn't). When creating the pivot table, base it on an external data source and then nominating the Access database after clicking the Get Data button? You might need to ensure that the database is not opened exclusively in Access. [In Access 2002: Tools Options Advanced Default open mode: Shared] If you need to come back for further advice, please mention which version of Access/Excel you are using.
