Question Using a date filter within a PivotTable

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to look in to this. I currently have a pivot table and want to create a chart based on that data. The data is based on dates, so as time goes by I'm going to want it display the last 6 months.

The closest filter built in is year to date, but I would really like to have a custom filter with something like between Today()-6months and Today.

The problem is that Today() gives the error "The date you entered is not a valid date"

Does anyone have an idea on how I can get the desired result using something like Today(). I dont want to use actual dates I would like it to be based on when it is when someone opens the file.

I'm using Excel 2007, but if you have a solution in Excel 2003 I can try that. If you need any clarifications please ask. Thanks again for your help!

-Brian
