I have two worksheets I use daily for work. One is a shared sheet that tracks progress on projects and the second is a sheet that runs macros to generate lists of words. When the shared sheet is closed, the generator runs very quickly. However, when the shared sheet is open, the generator runs extremely slowly, generating terms line-by-line. Why does the completely separate generator sheet slow down when the other is opened? Has anyone encountered this before?

I'm trying to create a pivot table where there are multiple children of one item in the hierarchy. It's hard to describe, but here we go: I want to be able to show a table with a list of names and total cost. Each total cost is the sum of three values that are also in the table. My table is set up like this: code:
I'd like to be able to (in a pivot table, ideally) expand a "total cost" cell to show the parts that made that total. So it looks like this: Anyone have any ideas about how to do this?

Aredna posted:How hard is it to rearrange your source data? If you can set it up as 4 columns (name,id,item,cost) then it will be easy to get the pivot table very close to what you want. Note, you don't need a row for total in this setup. The pivot table will sum up the individual parts into a total for you. I can probably write some VBA to rearrange the data to include separate rows for each item. If I manage that, how would I ensure the data looks like the mock-up above?

esquilax posted:Or, you could just make a few extra columns with formulas and base a pivot off that. I ended up doing something very similar to this and it worked great, thanks! Next question: I have a pivot table with columns of scores, each row represents a person. How can I use conditional formatting to highlight cells where the value is greater than the value of the previous column? I want to make them one color if the value is trending up and another if the value is trending down. Thanks!
