Press a button change pivot table Dimension Order

Hello!  Me again!

I'm looking for a way to dynamically sort the dimensions in a pivot table.  Our user wants to push a button and have the pivot table auto-magically move the product style to the first dimension in the pivot table.

I'm using a button, but I don't think the action list will accomplish this.  Is there a way to see 'if button A is pressed' resort Dimensions in X pivot table?  i.e. I hope you can see this picture.  If they press this button, sort so that the Style Dimension is now first.

Hey Critcher!

    I don't know if it's possible, but I recomend use the Climber Report extension. 

It's simple to use and you can do what you want for this case.

I have nothing against extensions, but I try not to use them if I can find another solution.  Upgrades break them at times.  Thanks!

Hi Critcher,

this might be late but i had the same topic today and found a solution:
1. sort the Pivot table as you want it
2. creat a bookmark and click the checkbox "save layout" and uncheck the save Sheet box.
3. creat a Button that first uses the bookmark and then go one selection backwards.

this takes some performance because of the fast selections but it works for me.
