Creating PivotTable in Macro

C

COV MarshallT

I have recorded a macro to create a PivotTable, and I can get it to run
successfully on my PC. But when a user on another PC tries it, they get
"Run-time error '1004': Application-defined or object-defined error. When I
go to debug, the entire portion of the below code beginning with
"ActiveWorkbook" is highlighted as the source of the problem. Does anyone
have any idea as to why this might happen? Thanks for your help!
Range("A1").Select
Dim endRow As Long
endRow = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
Range("K2").Select
ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Add(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:= _
"'Projects Detail & GL Accounts'!R1C1:R" & (endRow + 1) &
"C16").CreatePivotTable _
TableDestination:="", TableName:="PivotTable1", DefaultVersion:= _
xlPivotTableVersion10

Hi

Error 1004 could be returned, if the destination sheet already had a Pivot
Table with the same name already present.
It sounds as though the other user has the existing PT sheet active, when
they are trying to run the macro.

Hi

Hit the send button too soon
I meant to add, you could ensure this didn't happen if you specifically
selected the source data sheet before starting

Sheets("Projects Detail & GL Accounts").Range("A1").Select
Dim endRow As Long
endRow = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
Range("K2").Select
ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Add(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:= _
"'Projects Detail & GL Accounts'!R1C1:R" & (endRow + 1) &
"C16").CreatePivotTable _
TableDestination:="", TableName:="PivotTable1", DefaultVersion:= _
xlPivotTableVersion10
