remove or add items from a pivot tables

[S Himmelrich]

I have four pivot views, D Rank, S Rank, B Rank and O Rank. I know
how to add an items as illustrated below below, however removing it
errors when it's actually not there...how do I avoid this is my
question?

ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Data Completeness Rank"

' if the Pivot field is not showing I error out just below
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("S
Rank").Orientation _
= xlHidden
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("B Rank"). _
Orientation = xlHidden
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("O Rank"). _
Orientation = xlHidden


ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").AddDataField
ActiveSheet.PivotTables( _
"PivotTable1").PivotFields("DC Rank"), "Sum of DC Rank", xlSum

Take a peek at this:

Also, try using the Macro recorder when you work with your Pivot Table.
