Filter the Row Labels so that only the state of Texas is displayed. Which county had the smallest sum of adjusted gross income in the state of Texas? Which county had the largest sum of adjusted gross income in the state of Texas?
- c. Click on Sum of Adjusted Gross Income in the Values area of the PivotTable in Excel. Click Value Field Settings…. Click the tab for Show Values As.
