Removing PivotTable label that appears when 2 items in "Value" area - excel

I am trying to create a PivotTable.
However I am getting an extra row appearing above my titles with the word "Values" in one of the cells. This naturally comes from the "COLUMNS" area, as a field is automatically appearing in it.
This only appears when I have 2 or more fields in the "VALUES" area. With 1 it is not present.
I don't want it and cant see a way of getting rid of it. Deleting it also removes the two fields in the "VALUES" area.

If you right click the pivot table and select "Pivot Table Options...", then in "Display" tab of the new window there is checker for "Show the Values row". Uncheck it and is should disappear.

Export ssrs report to excel in 1 sheet

I have two tablix in ssrs. I want all the data in the first Tablix in sheet 1, but when I export my ssrs report to excel, it breaks it down to 10 sheets.The second tablix is on the 11th sheet, which i want to be the second sheet. I Added "a page break after" on the first tablix but it is still splitting up the data from the first tablix. How do i go about this?
There must be a Page Break on a Row or Column Group in the first table that is causing it to create pages for each Group.
Click on the table and click on the drop down by the Grouping for each Group at the bottom and go to the Group Properties.
Then go to the Page Break tab and make sure that the Page Break property box is unchecked.

Chart only a subsection of data in my table

I have a table and I want to show only a part of that data as a chart.
This is my data
pets age
coco 3
rover 3
clifford 8
rugrat 7
doug 1
I want to make a chart that shows pets on the x-axis and age on the y-axis.
Importantly, I want to show data for pets that are at least four years old (clifford and rugrat).
In my use case, I cannot delete those rows from my table because it would adversely affect other tables in my worksheet. I would also rather avoid pivot tables. My band-aid fix is to select the data and manually select, in this example, clifford and rugrat.
You mentioned you prefer to avoid pivot tables. This solution utilizes pivot charts, NOT pivot tables.
Click anywhere in the table and go to insert->pivot chart
(Optional) In the Create PivotChart menu, select the check box to Add this data to the Data Model. This will prevent a Pivot Table from being created in the workbook.
Drag Age into the values section and Pets into the Axis (Categories) section.
Click the dropdown button on the Pets field and add a value filter. In this case you want the sum of age to be greater than 4. (Alternatively, you can use the Pets button on the pivot chart.)
Below is the final product. You may wish to adjust the y-axis, add titles, etc. from here.
In Case you have Office 365, Try this:
Let assume that the following:
"pets" is on column A
"age" is on column B
You are Working in "Sheet5"
File Name is Book2
From the name Manager, create a named range called "Titles" and with value as:
=FILTER(INDIRECT("Sheet5!$A$2:"&"$A$"&COUNTA(Sheet5!$A:$A)),INDIRECT("Sheet5!$B$2:"&"$B$"&COUNTA(Sheet5!$B:$B))>4)
From the name Manager, create another named range called "Values" and with value as:
=FILTER(INDIRECT("Sheet5!$B$2:"&"$B$"&COUNTA(Sheet5!$B:$B)),INDIRECT("Sheet5!$B$2:"&"$B$"&COUNTA(Sheet5!$B:$B))>4)
For Chart do the below:
Insert the chart type you need not based on the data in Column A & B and then
Click on the chart
From the Chart Design Tab click on "Select Data"
Under "Legend Entries (Series)" click "Add"
In The "Series Value" Box type Book2!Values (Values is the named range created before)
Under "Horizontal (Category) Axis Labels" click "Edit"
In The "Axis label range" Box type Book2!Titles (Titles is the named range created before)

Pivot Table shows blank value labels

I have a pivot table which ideally I would like to exclude any row labels that have empty values. The pivot table can be seen below:
As can be seen in the image, there is no values for the row label Type 2.
For some reason the option to display these items is checked and grayed out in the pivot table options under the display tab as can be seen here:
I found a number of resources online that said to check the "show items with no data" field under the Layout & print tab in field settings, but still to no avail.
Basically I want to have the above pivot table to display Type 1 and Type 3 values but not Type 2 as it has no values.
I am using Excel 2010.
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated!

Hiding Tablix in SSRS report using Expressions

I have a report in which there are two tables from the same dataset, and i want to hide second table when the report runs at first, then when i click on the Product id i want to display the second table
Anyone help?enter image description here
I'm not sure you can do this by clicking on a textbox within a table as it might be out of scope, but if your first tablix is just a single line then you could just use a series of textboxes to emulate the 1st tablix.
Once you have done this, set the ToggleItem property of the 2nd tablix to be the name of the textbox that contains the ProductID.
I've just tested this and it works as expected.
...and if that does not help...
If your 1st tablix shows mutliple rows, you might want to consider adding a second row to it with the columns you require from your 2nd tablix and setting the toggleitem property of the 2nd row.

Dynamic Filters in Excel

I'm using Office 2013, and working on a worksheet in Excel.
My question is, is there a way to create a dynamic filter in Excel?
To explain in more detail, I have a dynamic worksheet, where upon opening the user will get a few drop-down options. After the user has selected one option from each of the drop-downs, the worksheet will display a table of data based on the user's inputs. The user can change their selections from the drop-downs after the table has been displayed, and can also clear their selections. If they clear their selection, the table will disappear.
Now, the first column in the result Table will contain Text values, but can also contain blanks. These values or blanks are all decided based on the user's selections in the previously mentioned drop-downs, which are displayed permanently to the left of the table. I want to add a filter to this first column of the result table (and to the rest of the table with it) such that only the non blank cells are displayed in the table every time the drop-downs are changed.
As I understand your need correct, I can give you this solution:
For getting a better result make your range to Table.
Select Power View from Insert items;
A sheet Power View 1 will added to your workbook;
From right pane select Table1 and its fields;
From Filter pane select as you want for filtering.
