If we can't see the workbook (and understandable why), then
it's going to be hard to diagnose any problem.

Posts: 3,400 Just tried it this morning again, by isolating the "subtotal"
part of the macro (see code below). Opened WB, made no
changes to the Pivot, manually turned off subtotals,
everything's great. Closed without saving. Reopened, ran
macro below. Error.

I know it's not much help, but I'm attaching screenshots of

the two pivots, each of which is in it's own workbook. The
2017 is the one that's causing trouble.

EDIT: just had a thought. The error occurs on the

"PF.Subtotals(1) = True" line. Maybe there's a PivotField in
the list that doesn't exist in the pivot, so can't be turned to
true. How would I find that?

Sub Filter_Pivot()
Dim PF As PivotField
Dim PI As PivotItem
Dim PT As PivotTable
Set PT = ActiveSheet.PivotTables(1)
SpeedOn
With PT
'Turn off subtotals
For Each PF In .PivotFields
'Set index 1 (Automatic) to True,
'so all other values are set to False
PF.Subtotals(1) = True
PF.Subtotals(1) = False
Next PF
End With
SpeedOff

Since setting it to True fails, why not use

.Subtotals = Array(False, False, False, False, False

Tried the first option like this, got the same error:

'Set index 1 (Automatic) to True,

' PF.Subtotals(1) = True
' PF.Subtotals(1) = False

End With

Trying this, it works. But why won't the other two work?

Sub Filter_Pivot()
Dim PF As PivotField
Dim PI As PivotItem
Dim PT As PivotTable
Set PT = ActiveSheet.PivotTables(1)
SpeedOn
ActiveSheet.Range("A5").Select
