Accessing the Slicer through VBA

There may be times when we want to programmatically control slicers through VBA. For example, we may want to default a date to the current date or set a cost centre depending on who has opened the book. This post looks how a slicer can be controlled through VBA.

In this example, we have added a slicer to a worksheet that uses a date hierarchy as its source. Because, we have included all levels of the hierarchy when the slicer was setup, we get three individual slicers for each level of the hierarchy.
