I have a pivot table with a filter. The report is formatted differently than the default formatting (i.e. column width made smaller, color shading for columns, light grey dotted lines for cell borders, wrapping text). The option "Preserve Cell Formatting on Update" and "Classic Pivot Table Layout" is used.

When I change the value of the filter, the Pivot Table format does not change.

Then, when selecting "Show Report Filter Pages...:", the worksheets are created correctly for each person but the formatting is not totally preserved (cell width is not preserved, the color coding, wrapping, and cell borders are preserved). I would have to re-format all of the tabs every time I run this daily report.

How do I get the worksheets generated from the "Show Report Filter Pages" option to use the same column width as the original? I'm stumped!

What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.

Has there ever been an answer to this? I'm generating 6 worksheets from the report filter and don't want to have to format each one separately. There must be a way to do this!
