Insert Slicer

Trying to setup a slicer option in a table, not a pivot table and it is grayed out. Sheet is not protected what would cause this option to not be available?

    Hi Andy_Carden 

     

    what Excel version do you use? Slicers on formatted tables only since Excel 2013 and newer. In Excel 2010, slicers can only used with Pivot tables.

        Andy_Carden Perhaps a silly question, but are you using a structured table? If not see a Table ribbon and on the Insert ribbon the Slicer and Timeline buttons will be greyed out. Slicers on Mac works just like ones on the PC.
