RigganT202 It doesn't seem to be a very meaningful way to do this but I trust you have a good reason for it. Perhaps the attached file does what you ask for.
It involves pulling all columns from the data table into the row area of a pivot table and then do quite a bit of formatting (tabular, repeating labels, no sub- or grand totals and fix the dates).

- RigganT202Sep 03, 2023Copper ContributorHi. Thank you very much!. Yes its just what I needed. I have converted the source table to the smart table to make it dynamic and played with firmatting, But when I've tryed to recreate another table just the same as yours, I've failed. Can you please look at the Sheet3 and point my mistakes. What I'm doing wrong? Why all data is in one column?. I have compared nearly every parameter of your pivot table but couldnt get same result.
Please look this sample. https://file.io/uks2zkbH9AJj- Riny_van_EekelenSep 03, 2023Platinum Contributor
