I have an Excel spreadsheet which contains a pivot table. I want to convert this excel into Google sheet, so I uploaded it in Google sheet.
Everything gets converted successfully except the pivot table.
Is there a way the excel pivot can work in Google Sheets?
Please advise.
you will need to recreate it manually because not all Excel functions are backwards compatible with Google Sheets even if they are same or just similar
I just found that the excel pivot table actually got converted to Google sheet. The only reason why I felt it was not converted is that unlike Excel in Google sheets the filter does not get displayed on screen. The filter is working fine just not getting displayed on screen. That is not much of a worry. So I am good now.

I made a VBA function which turns my raw data into a table format since I want to use a pivottable for charts. The problem is that my file need to run on excel online and VBA is not running in a cloud environment.
Is there a way to do this with functions/power query/...
Thanks in advance
Took a while but i managed. It is in fact Excel online compatible Each formula is displayed above the corresponding column. I added some data to make sure it could handle extra data.
=IF(F8<>"",ROWS($G$7:G7),NA#)
=AGGREGATE(15,6,$G$8:$G$32,ROWS($G$7:G7))
=IF(ISNUMBER(H8),IF(ISTEXT(INDEX($B$6:$C$32,H8,1)),INDEX($B$6:$C$32,H8,2),I7),"")
=IF(ISNUMBER(H8),IF(ISTEXT(INDEX($C$7:$D$32,H8,1)),INDEX($C$7:$D$32,H8,2),J7),"")
=IF(ISNUMBER(H8),INDEX(E$8:E$32,$H8),"")
=IF(ISNUMBER(H8),INDEX(F$8:F$32,$H8),"")
I have data in the following format:
And I want to transform it into the following format in either Excel or Google Sheets:
Any suggestions on how to complete this?
Use a pivot table in Excel. I do not get exactly the same layout, but it comes close.
I have a table (named as Logs) in Sheet1 to which I am writing through a program. I need to copy the content written to the table Logs to Sheet2 as LogReport when I open the workbook. Is it possible to do this without using macros or Power Query option in Excel. I am working with Excel 2010. I have been searching for a while, but I was unable to find a solution which match the requirement.
Looked through the functions available as well, but I was unable to find a possible solution. Appreciate if I can get some help.
"Is it possible to do this without using macros?"
If under "macros" you mean VBA then the answer is No.
Hi and thanks in advance for the help.
I have an Access 2007 database that has tables created by live links to several Microsoft Excel 2010 spreadsheets.
I have several Access macros that run queries against these linked tables, and I find that the formatting of the output is in very strange formatting if I run the macros, without first having those linked Excel spreadsheet files open.
To put it another way, if I open the linked spreadsheets and run the Access macros, all the data formats correctly, but if I have the linked Excel spreadsheets closed when I run my Access macros, the formatting goes all funny - particularly with date fields.
Can anyone offer any advice on how I can resolve this problem?
Many thanks
Kim
I usually create a straight select query for each linked Excel table.
In this you can force any formatting or conversion you may need as well as using alias to obtain more friendly field names.
Then use this query and not the linked table for the further processing.
I need to convert a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet to a google spreadsheet, but the Excel sheet is made by linking to external data, which I have no access to. The values are still visible on the Excel sheet. When I import the Excel sheet to google drive and convert to a google spreadsheet, all values are '#REF!' because it can't of course find the source of the data. I can copy/paste the values from Excel to a new google spreadsheet, but that destroys the formatting. So is there a way to copy format and values from an Excel sheet to google spreadsheet, preferably with google apps script so that I can automate it. (it has to be done on a daily basis)
You should use Excel itself, to replace the formula linked values with plain values first. You can then import that excel file into google drive if required. Here's a link from Microsoft showing you how to do it: replace formula with values
