Excel Pivot Items Using C# - Unable to Access

[james.igoe]

I am working on a C# add-in that modifies pivot tables. I have done
this work in VBA, and the object model seems straightforward, e.g.,
PivotTable-PivotFields-PivotItems, but I can not get the object for
PivotItems, or iterate through the items. Do I need something other
than PivotItems?


Code for PivotFields, that works:

IExcel.PivotFields pvtfs = (IExcel.PivotFields)
pvtTable.get_PageFields(Missing.Value);
foreach (IExcel.PivotField pvtf in pvtfs)
{

Code for the does nto work, and PivotItems shows no values (as in
count):

IExcel.PivotItems pvtis =
(IExcel.PivotItems)pvtf.PivotItems(Missing.Value);
foreach (IExcel.PivotItem pvti in
pvtis)
{

Similarly, even though I can iterate the CubeFields, I can not edit
some parameters, although I can retrieve its value, e.g., trying to
modify EnablemultiplePageitems throws an error:

IExcel.CubeFields cbfs =
(IExcel.CubeFields)pvtTable.CubeFields;
foreach (IExcel.CubeField cbf in cbfs)
{
string cbfname = cbf.Name;
bool cbfMultiPage =
cbf.EnableMultiplePageItems;

if (cbfname == dimensionName &
cbfMultiPage == false)
{

cbf.EnableMultiplePageItems =
true;

I should add I've been unable to find any information regarding this,
mostly unanswered questions.
