Pivot Table - Drill down to source and update

[TimT]

Is there a way to drill down on a cell of a pivot table and update or change
the underlying source data from the pivot report? I'm afraid that the users
will have too much trouble understanding the data in a matrix or table format.

The Pivot Table report is being used as a budget report and I would need the
user to be able to change or adjust some of the fields in the amount area.

The drill down displays the source rows in a new worksheet - that doesn't
solve the problem at all.

This one file will be access by several users separately to view their
specific budget, make changes, save the file and get out for the next user to
do the same.

Any ideas from the you brilliant wizards would save my job!

Drill down? Yes. Double-click on the value. That inserts a new tab in your
workbook showing you the detail behind the value.

However, if you want to change that data and have the changed data reflected
in the pivot table, you have to change the data in the source table and then
click the refresh button on the pivot table tool bar. The refresh button is
the exclamation mark icon.
