Pivot Table Data Source Issue‏

Hi,

I created a table, and inserted a pivot table that uses this table as data source.
I closed the excel and renamed the file and then opened it again.
When trying to refresh my Pivot Table, I get the following Error:
"We couldn't get the data from 'Table1' in the workbook C: (old file name) Open this workbook in Excel and try again."
i.e. it is still looking for table using the old file name.

How to fix this?

Thanks.
 
Click on pivot. Go to ribbon tool and click change data source and remove path/file name from reference and just keep the table name.
 
No problem. Pivot has its limitations, but I love it for how it can slice and dice data on the fly. Happy pivoting ;)
