Default how can I sort all cells in a sheet by a value in that cell?

I didn't see that (I missed your followup).

You could use a helper column and use a formula like:

=countif(a2:ad2,"*bob*")0

Then filter on True/Falses

Thanks for this Dave but if I can I'd like to be able to apply this
filter to the whole sheet. I can only do this per column. Is there a
way to use the advanced filter to apply this to the entire sheet? Seems
like there should be.
