Update:
I've deleted the new table and the error message is still there. So it's not that. ARGH.

Stranger and stranger...
I replaced every instance of '8/25/2015' with '8/24/2015' and it's still giving me the IDENTICAL error message, even though this spreadsheet no longer contains any cells with '8/25/2015' in them.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Omins- if you are here, I am wondering if you know anything about assigning tasks in Wunderlist. I made the list and shared with my students, but the only person I can see to assign tasks to is me!
Otherwise it seems to be working, but I have to email the student to tell them what I want them to do

For anyone still following my Excel ordeal, I wound up simply pulling the last offline version where the pivot tables still worked, and replacing the data with values from the live version, and then saving the now-updated working version back to Sharepoint. I feel like this:

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I kind of want you to send me the wackaloon 8/25/15 version so I can poke at it, but I really should not let that suck up my life like I know it would...

I feel your pain, Jessica. Glad you found a work around. And HELL YES on the xkcd.

That xkcd describes so much of my career.
There are a few software packages out there where the companies behind them call me when they get errors they don't understand because I'm likely to have run into them and found ways around them. It means that even the authors of the software aren't often helpful for me.
